Deut:32:48-52

48: And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying

49: Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession:

50: And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:

51: Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.

52: Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.

How are Joshua leading the Israelites across the Jordan River and Moses leading them across the Red Sea the same?

Some of the key biblical events around Moses had quite close parallels in the story of Joshua. In the Exodus story, Joshua accompanied Moses onto the mountain, and was the only person other than Moses who could enter the tabernacle. In the Book of Exodus, Moses held out his rod and parted the Red Sea. The importance of the priests was given greater emphasis in the Book of Joshua, and as soon as their feet touched the waters of the Jordan, the waters stopped flowing and the people could cross. In the first case, parting the water allowed the Israelites to cross over and defeat the Egyptians who were pursuing them; in the second case, parting the water allowed the Israelites to cross over and defeat the Canaanites who were before them.


What part of the promised Land did Joshua capture?

God told Moses to prepare a young Hebrew, Joshua, to assume the leadership of the Israelites upon Moses' death. Forty years later, the Israelites were camped on the eastern side of the Dead Sea when Moses died. God told Joshua it was time to lead the people across the Jordan River into the Promised Land. In the Hebrew Bible, the "Land of Canaan" extends from Lebanon southward across Gaza to the "Brook of Egypt" and eastward to the Jordan River Valley, thus including modern Israel and the Palestinian Territories. The Lord helped Joshua lead the Hebrew people into the Promised Land. When they entered this land, the Israelites had to cross the Jordan River. At God's command, Joshua told the priests to take the Ark of the Covenant into the river. A great battle with the people of the land of Canaan took place by the city of Gabaon. The Israelites defeated their enemies and put them to flight while God rained stones from heaven on those who were fleeing, so that more perished from the stones than from the swords of the Israelites. The day was coming to an end, but the Israelites had not yet routed their enemies. Joshua then prayed to God and cried out aloud before the people, "Sun, stand still, and moon, do not move..." And the sun did stand still, and night did not come until the Israelites had defeated their enemies.


Did the Egyptians move?

They moved because the wasn't enough water for them to survive. They moved so they could be near the Nile river. The Nile river supplied them with enough water for the Israelites, also in the book of exodus.

Who parted the waters in the Bible?

A:Three Old Testament characters: Moses (the Red Sea), Joshua (Jordan River) and Elijah (Jordan River).A:God through Moses.Jewish answer:The Torah states that God parted the Sea of Reeds (Exodus 14:21). Moses merely gave a visible sign that God was about to part the sea. This is why God, not Moses, is praised in the song that the Israelites sang after the parting of the sea (Exodus ch.15).
