Explanation
[Jericho]
A key city in the Jordan River valley, Jericho is one of the oldest cities in the world. God performed a great miracle there, commanding Joshua to lead the Israelites in marching around the city seven times, causing the walls to fall down (Joshua 6:1–16).
Jericho was the first city in Canaan to be conquered, and all of its possessions were to be completely burned, as it symbolized the firstfruits—a representation of all the other produce to be offered to God. When this offering was burned, it released a fragrance pleasing to the Lord.
The Israelites followed a 30-day lunar calendar, and the name Jericho means "its month" or "its thirty," implying that it contained 30 kings within it. Jericho being offered to God symbolized that 30 cities were being consecrated to Him.
