Commentary on Joshua 4:7
The teaching content—'Then ye shall answer them, That the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD'—connects miracle to covenant presence. The ark's mention emphasizes that God's covenant promise, not human power, accomplished the miracle. This illustrates proper theology transmission—attributing God's works to Him, not natural causes or human achievement. The detailed answer (verses 21-24) provides comprehensive historical narrative, showing catechesis requires substantial content, not minimal facts.
