Joshua 6:20
The Scripture
(20) So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
Chapter overview (whole chapter)
The Israelites prepare to cross the Jordan River as the priests blow trumpets and the waters part. The people cross safely while the waters fall upon those who refuse to follow the command. This shows God's power and the importance of obedience.
