Joshua Renews the Covenant
30 Then Joshua built an altar to the Lord God of Israel, on Mount Ebal, 31 just the way Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the Israelis in the Book of the Law of Moses: “…an altar of uncut[b] stones that hasn’t been worked with iron tools…”[c] and they offered burnt offerings to the Lord on it, along with peace offerings.
