When the day came to cross the Jordan, the officers rode out and told everyone to march out after the Ark of the Covenant had passed by their camp, but that they needed to be sure to stay 1,000 yards away from it at all times.
Joshua also told everyone that God would perform a miracle that day to prove to them that It would help them to conquer the Promised Land.
The procession of priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant, accompanied by a representative from each of the tribes marched through the camp and into the Jordan, and lo, the river stopped flowing and all the water backed up at Adam, a city far far away. Then the Hebrews marched across the Jordan on dry land.
