All the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea became terrified of the Israelites.

At that time, YAHWEH commanded Joshua, “Make knives of flint and circumcise the men of Israel again.” So Joshua made stone knives and circumcised all the men at a place they named Circumcision Hill.
