Jos 4:6

Jos 4:6that this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask in time to come, saying, What do you mean by these stones?

Jos 4:7

Jos 4:7then you shall tell them, Because the waters of the Yarden were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it passed over the Yarden, the waters of the Yarden were cut off: and these stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Yisra'el forever.
