Ep.92 The Delegation and the Altar
In a suspenseful turn of events, the two-and-a-half tribes of Israel, after years of battle in Canaan, construct a grand altar just before crossing the Jordan River. This act, seemingly innocent, sends shockwaves through the western tribes, who fear it signals a betrayal of their shared faith. As tension mounts and war seems imminent, a delegation is dispatched to confront the eastern tribes. What secrets lie behind this monumental altar? The eastern tribes reveal their true motive: a desperate attempt to preserve their connection to the community and ensure their descendants are not cast aside. This revelation unfolds a deeper mystery of identity and unity, leaving the future of the tribes hanging in the balance as they navigate the intricate web of trust and allegiance.
