Contextual Overview
10 The Lord had commanded Joshua to tell the people what to do. This is what Moses had said Joshua must do. So the priests carrying the Holy Box stood in the middle of the river until everything was done. Meanwhile, the people hurried across the river. 11 After the people finished crossing the river, the priests carried the Lord 's Holy Box to the front of the people. 12 The men from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh obeyed Moses. These men crossed the river in front of the other people. These men were prepared for war. They were going to help the rest of the Israelites take the land God had promised to give them. 13 About 40,000 soldiers, prepared for war, passed before the Lord . They were marching toward the plains of Jericho. 14 That day the Lord made Joshua a great man to all the Israelites. From that time on, they respected Joshua just as they had Moses. 15 Then the Lord said to Joshua, 16 "Command the priests carrying the Box that holds the Agreement to come out of the river." 17 So Joshua commanded the priests, "Come out of the Jordan River." 18 The priests obeyed Joshua. They carried the Box of the Lord 's Agreement with them and came out of the river. When their feet touched the land on the other side of the river, the water in the river began flowing again. The water again overflowed its banks just as it had before the people crossed. 19 The people crossed the Jordan River on the tenth day of the first month and camped at Gilgal, east of Jericho.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
On that day the Lord magnified Joshua in the sight of Israel,.... Made him great and honourable in their esteem, by doing what he foretold would be done, dividing the waters of Jordan, drying up the river to make a passage for them through it, as on dry land:
and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life; had a reverend esteem of him, and affection for him, and yielded obedience to him all his days; see Exodus 14:31.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
