Joshua 5:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ So Joshua made knives from flint stones and circumcised the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] at ·Gibeath Haaraloth [^CHebrew for “Hill of Foreskins”].

⁴ This is why Joshua circumcised the men: After the Israelites left Egypt, all the men old enough to serve in the army died in the desert on the ·way [journey] ·out of [or after leaving] Egypt. ⁵ The men who had come out of Egypt had been circumcised, but none of those who were born in the desert on the trip from Egypt had been circumcised.
