The two tribes and half are sent home with, a blessing, strict charge to fear the Lord, and great booty, Joshua 22:1-9. They build an altar of testimony at the brink of Jordan, Joshua 22:10. The Israelites are offended, and assemble to wage war against them, Joshua 22:11,12. They first send Phinehas and ten princes ambassadors to reprove them, Joshua 22:13-20. They clear themselves; their brethren rest satisfied, Joshua 22:21-34.
