Joshua 6 · Grade 2
The Wall Fell Down Flat
Read the Story
Jericho was shut tight. No one went out. No one came in. God told Joshua that He had given Jericho to him.
God told them what to do. The men marched around the city one time each day. Seven priests blew trumpets of rams' horns. The ark went with them. They did this for six days.
On the seventh day they marched around the city seven times. The priests blew the trumpets. The people gave a great shout. The wall fell down flat! Rahab and her family were kept safe.
Memory Verse
“So the people shouted and the priests blew the trumpets. When the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight in front of him, and they took the city.”
Joshua 6:20 (WEB)
