I Corinthians 10:6
And those things became types of us...
(Young's Literal Translation)

Yahweh is revealing that we must set out from our tents, we must lay aside these
earthly bodies, in order to enter into our inheritance. We cannot ascend to glory apart from
tasting of death first. We cannot receive new habitations, or dwelling places, aside from first
putting off the old.
These things are not to be understood on a natural plane alone. There is spiritual truth
in them. We must die to our natural Adamic life if we are to enter into our inheritance in
Christ. No man can cross into his inheritance apart from first becoming a partaker in
Christ's cross.

Matthew 10:38-39
"And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who has
found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it."

Paul spoke of the old Adamic life as something that must be put off.

Ephesians 4:20-24
But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught
by Him, as the truth is in Yahshua: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the
old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit
of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in
true righteousness and holiness.

Even as the Israelites had to "set out from their tents" in order to become possessors
of new and glorious dwellings, so too must we put off the old man and put on Christ. This
is how we consecrate ourselves prior to crossing into our inheritance. Our old nature must
be crucified that Christ might be revealed in us.
Another detail of the crossing was that it occurred at harvest time. "For the Jordan
overflows all its banks all the days of harvest..." Harvests, as we have seen, are symbolic of
God reaping the earth to gather men unto Himself. Yahweh, with great intent, determined
that Israel must cross the Jordan at harvest time for their crossing was to serve as a symbol
of resurrection.
In the account of the crossing, our Father has also given us another salient detail. If
we see this account merely as history, the detail would mean very little. However, knowing
that Yahweh is revealing mysteries through what is recorded for us, we are able to marvel
at what is disclosed. We read:

The waters which were flowing down from above stood and rose up in one heap,a great
distance away at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan...

The waters of death were rolled back all the way to Adam. This detail is a further
testimony that Yahweh has provided salvation for all mankind. Adam's name means "man"
and he is the first of our race. In Adam was contained the seed of every man who would ever
be born (with the exception of Christ who was born of heavenly seed). Yahweh gives us this
detail, indeed He caused the waters to flow back to the precise location of this city, to
