VERSE 1 
-    rose early
     Archbishop Usher supposes, that this was upon Wednesday, the 28th
     of April, A. M. 2553, the fortieth year of the Exodus from Egypt.
     From Shittim, where the israelites had been encamped for about two
     months (De 1.3), to the Jordan, was, according to Josephus, about
     sixty stadia; that is, between seven and eight English miles.

   * Jos 2:1 Nu 25:1 Mic 6:5
-    Jordan
     Jordan, called by the Arabs El Sharia, takes its rise in
     Anti-Libanus, about twelve miles north of Caesarea Philippi, now
     Bannias; and, having run about twelve miles southward, it receives
     a considerable stream, which is now called the Moiet Hasbeia.
     About 15 miles farther, it forms the waters of Merom or Semechon,
     now Houle; and, after running about 28 miles more, it passes
     through the lake of Gennesaret, and these runs southward till it
     loses itself in the Dead Sea; its whole course being about 160
     miles.

VERSE 15 
 -    the feet
   * Jos 3:13 Isa 26:6
-    Jordan overfloweth
     The ordinary current of the Jordan, near where the Israelites
     crossed, is said by Maundrell, to be about twenty yards wide,
     deeper than a man's height, and so rapid, that there is no
     swimming against it.  It has, however, two banks; the first, or
     inner one, is that of the river it its natural state, and the
     second, or outer one, about a furlong distant, is that of its
     overflowings, which it does when the summer's sun has melted the
     snow on mount Lebanon and Hermon, in the months of March and
     April.  And this was the time which God chose that the Israelites
     should pass over it; that a miraculous interposition might be
     necessary; and that, by the miracle, they might be convinced of
     his omnipotence.
   * Jos 4:18 1Ch 12:15 Jer 12:5; 49:19

   * Jos 15:2 Ge 14:3 Nu 34:3 De 3:17
-    The passage through the Red Sea took place in the night, when the
     Israelites were fleeing from the Egyptians with great trepidation:
     but they passed Jordan in the day-time, with previous warning,
     leisurely, directly opposite to Jericho, and with a triumphant
     defiance of the Canaanites; this passage into the promised land
     evidently typifying the believer's passage through death to
     heaven.
