[5:2] Then the Lord told Joshua, “Make some knives out of flint and circumcise the Israelites.”
[5:3] So Joshua did as the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the Israelites at a place called Circumcision Hill.
[5:7] The sons of these men had never been circumcised, and it was this new generation that Joshua circumcised.
[5:8] After the circumcision was completed, the whole nation stayed in the camp until the wounds had healed.
[5:9] The Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have removed from you the disgrace of being slaves in Egypt.” That is why the place was named Gilgal, the name it still has.
[5:10] While the Israelites were camping at Gilgal on the plain near Jericho, they observed Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month.
[5:11] The next day was the first time they ate food grown in Canaan: roasted grain and bread made without yeast.
[5:12] The manna stopped falling then, and the Israelites no longer had any. From that time on they ate food grown in Canaan.
