Explained for Children

Imagine if you and your friends built a fort, and your parents were worried about it. But then you explained why you built it and how you'd take care of it, and your parents were happy about it. That's kind of like what happened here. The tribes explained themselves, and the leaders were okay with it.

Historical Background

Joshua 22 was written by Joshua, a leader of the Israelites, around 1400 BCE. The audience was the Israelites, and the cultural setting was a time when tribes often had conflicts. The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh were settling on the east side of the Jordan River, and their actions had caused concern among the other tribes.
