Gill's Notes on the Bible

That this may be a sign among you,.... A commemorative one:

[that] when your children ask [their fathers] in time to come; or "tomorrow" g and so in all time, or any time hereafter:

saying, what mean you by these stones? what is the reason of setting them up, and in this place, and being just of such a number?

g מחר αυριον, Sept. "eras", Pagninus, Montanus.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 4:6. This may be a sign — Stand as a continual memorial of this miraculous passage, and consequently a proof of their lasting obligation to God.
