Joshua 8:30-34

Joshua 8:30-34 TPT

Afterward, Joshua built near Mount Ebal a stone altar to YAHWEH, the God of Israel. He made it according to the teaching in the law of Moses, YAHWEH’s servant. Moses had commanded them to build an altar using stones that had not been cut with iron tools. On it they offered to YAHWEH burnt sacrifices and fellowship offerings. And with the Israelites looking on, Joshua inscribed on stones the law which Moses had written. All Israel, including their elders, officials, and judges, stood on either side of the ark. Both native-born citizens and immigrants alike faced the ark of the covenant of YAHWEH and the Levitical priests who carried it. In front of half of them stood Mount Gerizim, and in front of the other half stood Mount Ebal, as YAHWEH’s servant Moses commanded at first to bless the people of Israel. Afterward, Joshua read aloud all the words of the law, the blessings and the curses, exactly as it was written in the scroll of the law.
