What did the people of Israel do before crossing the Jordan River?

Before crossing the Jordan River, the people of Israel camped near the river, consecrated themselves, and received instructions from Joshua to follow the Ark of the Covenant carried by the priests to lead them into the Promised Land.


What is the difference between moses crossing the red sea and Joshua crossing the Jordan river?

Moses crossed the red sea in order to escape from the Egyptians and slavery. After they crossed the Red Sea, they wandered around for 40 years. At last, they were guided by God to the promised land which they had to cross the Jordan River to enter. Unfortunately Moses died just before they entered the promised land, so the Israelites were guided by Joshua. So the Red Sea: escaping from slavery in Egypt. The Jordan River: entering the promised land.


Where were the children of Israel before they went over to the Promised Land?

Did Moses establish Jerusalem as the capital of the Nation of Israel?

No, Moses did not enter the Promised Land. He died before the people of Israel went into Canaan to claim the land. (Deuteronomy 34:5 "So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, by the word of the Lord.") It was King David who established Jerusalem as Israel's capital, 2900 years ago.


Did Joshua part water?

Yes, God parted the Jordan River through Joshua; specifically in verse 17 below:Joshua 3: 7-17 7And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.8And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.9And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God.10And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.11Behold, the ark of the covenant of the LORD of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.12Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.13And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the LORD, the LORD of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, that the waters of Jordan shall be cut off from the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand upon an heap.14And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;15And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)16That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.17And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.
