Joshua 3:6

⁶ And Joshua speaketh unto the priests, saying, `Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people;' and they take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people.

Dry ground

Dry ground, as in Genesis 7:22, signifies people whose life of love and faith has been extinguished.

In Haggai 2:6, dry ground, or dry land, signifies a new church about to be established. (Arcana Coelestia 28)

In Exodus 4:9, it signifies the natural man in falsity. (Arcana Coelestia 6976)
