THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL WERE NOT CIRCUMCISED IN THE WILDERNESS

Joshua 5:3 And Joshua made him sharp knives and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

Joshua 5:4 And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.

Joshua 5:5 Now all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Egypt, them they had not circumcised.

Joshua 5:7 And their children, whom he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised because they had not circumcised them by the way.
