Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Josh 4:13

“And forty thousand fighting men by their troops, and bands, marched through the plains and fields of the city of Jericho.”

“to the plains of Jericho--That part of the Arabah or Ghor, on the west, is about seven miles broad from the Jordan to the mountain entrance at Wady-Kelt. Though now desert, this valley was in ancient times richly covered with wood. An immense palm forest, seven miles long, surrounded Jericho.”
