The Misunderstanding that Threatened to Tear Israel Apart

In this week’s episode of Solid Scripture, Messianic Jewish brothers Josiah and Hosea Geoffrey continue their walk through the Bible with Joshua 20:1-22:34, in which Joshua finishes allotting Israel’s inheritance by apportioning Levite cities, and sends the tribes of Reuben and Gad back to their home in Gilead across the Jordan—but when the eastern tribes build a copy of God’s altar, it nearly sends the budding nation into a civil war. What does the book of Joshua mean when it says that all of God’s good promises came true? Why did the tribes of Israel in Gilead build an altar despite Moses’ explicit warning? What provoked the people of Israel to react so harshly against the eastern tribes? The brothers cover all these questions and more in this Bible study.
