and the Ark of the Covenant a sacred chest that represented God's presence among them then on the seventh day they were to March around the city seven times at Joshua's command after the seventh lap the priests were to blow their trumpets and all the people were to shout as loud as they could Joshua and the Israelites did exactly as God instructed the people of Jericho were watching as the Israelites circled their City once a day quietly except for the sound of the trumpets they were confused and even amused by such an unusual military strategy finally

the seventh day arrived the Israelites got up at dawn and marched around the city not once but seven times the anticipation grew with each lap then when Joshua gave the signal the priests blew their trumpets and the people shouted with all their might and something incredible happened the walls of Jericho fell down flat the Israelites charged straight into the City and captured it just as God had promised
