In today's reading of Tyndale's OYCSB with featured content written by the CBT team:
- War is over for the moment. Joshua reminds the Reubenites, Gadites, and half of the tribe of Manasseh to hold fast to the Lord. They will be separated from the rest of Israel by land, but not by covenant.
- These tribes build an impressive altar. It causes a conflict, but in the end, the Reubenites, Gadites, and half of the tribe of Manasseh simply desire for future generations to remember that Israel is one with each other and with God.
- Finally, Joshua calls all of Israel together to renew their commitment to the Lord's covenant. Before Joshua dies, his last act as leader is to command the people to put away their false gods and choose to worship only the Lord.
