Joshua 22:1
Then Joshua summoned the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh
2 and told them, “You have done all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and you have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you.
3 All this time you have not deserted your brothers, up to this very day, but have kept the charge given you by the LORD your God.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
