Joshua 3:6

And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.

Ver. 6. And went before the people.] To the further side of the river, say some; to the middle only, say others, as Jos 3:17 the pillar of cloud still going before them for a guide, as some conceive, but others doubt.
