Gilgal is the name of the location in the hill country of Israel, west of the River Jordan, and about ten miles north of the city of Jericho. The Israelites camped here after crossing the River Jordan.

The Israelites, led by Moses, did not practice circumcision while they trekked in the wilderness for forty years. Most of the warrior class who had left Egypt had died, and few warriors remained alive.
