Ed the altar

What are your thoughts on the altar of testimony in Joshua 22? What's the allegory? This seemed wrong. Was Phinehas and those with him just opting for shalom? Should they have prayed instead of all the "it seemed good" and the " we perceive that the Lord is among us" talk? This chapter is one of those that feel like being with folks that get off track..

For me, I file this under the heading of Israel as one of the most cantankerous nations in human history. We should never forget that they were not heroic people, and were prone to constant disputes over nothing. They were hair-triggered in looking for an excuse to be offended, which has a lot today with how Judaism and Jewish culture has turned out.
