The Transjordanian altar

A

In the land of Gilead east of the Jordan the Reubenites, Gadites,
and half-tribe of Manasseh built an altar. The rest of Israel heard about it and set out to make
war against them. Pinchas son of Eleazar went to talk to them. But, they did not build the altar
to offer sacrifices or burnt offerings. It was built as a witness that although the Jordan separates
them, they are a part of Israel and that they will perform the service of the Lord at Shilo. And
they named the altar “witness.”
