To Navitalai: an addition to Chris reply; an exact time wasn't recored yet depending on their speed and the fact that it was in a part of the Jordan just North of the dead sea across from Jericho were there was a "sand bar" piece that wasn't so deep. Therefore allowing it easier to cross & get up out of river. Hope that helps! God bless
Just to clarify, Texsis; the LORD parted the Jordan as He did at the Red Sea by the hand of Moses ( Exodus 14:21,22), so this would have helped the Israelites to cross over much quicker than the earlier crossing ( Joshua 3:7-17); and of course, the Jordan was much narrower in width than the Red Sea.
