Context — The Altar of Witness
29Far be it from us to rebel against the LORD and turn away from Him today by building an altar for burnt offerings, grain offerings, or sacrifices, other than the altar of the LORD our God, which stands before His tabernacle.”
30When Phinehas the priest and the chiefs of the congregation—the heads of Israel’s clans who were with him—heard what the descendants of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh had to say, they were satisfied.
31Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest said to the descendants of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh, “Today we know that the LORD is among us, because you have not committed this breach of faith against Him. Consequently, you have delivered the Israelites from the hand of the LORD.”
32Then Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, together with the other leaders, returned to the Israelites in the land of Canaan and brought back a report regarding the Reubenites and Gadites in the land of Gilead. 33The Israelites were satisfied with the report, and they blessed God and spoke no more about going to war against them to destroy the land where the Reubenites and Gadites lived.Cross References

Joshua 22:31 Summary
[In Joshua 22:31, Phinehas is saying that because the Reubenites and Gadites did not disobey God, they have helped all the Israelites avoid God's judgment, much like in Deuteronomy 30:19-20, where Moses emphasizes the importance of choosing life and obeying God's commands. This shows us that our actions can have a big impact on those around us, and that faithfulness is key to experiencing God's presence and blessing. By following God's commands and being faithful, we can also experience His presence and blessing in our lives, as seen in Psalm 16:11. This verse reminds us that our faithfulness is not just about us, but about how it affects those around us, and that God is always with us, guiding and protecting us, as seen in Isaiah 43:2.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of Phinehas saying 'the LORD is among us' in Joshua 22:31?
Phinehas is acknowledging that God's presence is with the Israelites, guiding and protecting them, as seen in other instances like Exodus 33:15-16 and Psalm 139:7-10, where God's presence is emphasized as a source of comfort and strength.
How did the descendants of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh 'deliver the Israelites from the hand of the LORD'?
By not committing a breach of faith against God, they prevented His judgment from falling on the Israelites, much like in Genesis 18:23-33, where Abraham interceded for Sodom, demonstrating the power of faithfulness in averting God's wrath.
What can we learn from Phinehas' response to the Reubenites and Gadites?
We can learn the importance of humility and seeking to understand others, as seen in Phinehas' willingness to listen and be satisfied with their explanation, much like in Proverbs 12:1, where it is written that 'whoever loves discipline loves knowledge'.
How does this verse relate to the concept of God's presence in our lives today?
Just as the Israelites experienced God's presence in their midst, we can also experience His presence through the Holy Spirit, as promised in John 14:16-17 and Ephesians 3:16-19, where Jesus promises to be with us always.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can demonstrate my faithfulness to God, just like the Reubenites and Gadites did, and how can I apply the principles from Joshua 22:31 to my life?
- How can I cultivate a deeper awareness of God's presence in my life, and what role does faith play in experiencing His presence, as seen in Hebrews 11:6?
- What are some potential 'breaches of faith' that I may be committing, and how can I repent and seek God's forgiveness, as seen in 1 John 1:9?
- In what ways can I, like Phinehas, be a instrument of peace and understanding in my community, and how can I apply the principles of conflict resolution from this verse to my relationships?

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Joshua 22:31
The Lord is among us, by his gracious presence and preventing goodness, in keeping you from so great an offence, and all of us from those dismal calamities that would have followed upon it. Out of the hand of the Lord, i.e. from the wrath and dreadful judgments of God; by avoiding that sin which would have involved both you and us in a most bloody war, you have delivered us from the evils we feared. He that prevents an unexpected or approaching disease or mischief, doth as truly deliver a man from it, as he that cures or removes it after it hath been inflicted.
Trapp's Commentary on Joshua 22:31
Joshua 22:31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD [is] among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.Ver. 31. And Phinehas.] Who here showed himself to be, as an ambassador should be, Vir bonus dicendi peritus; a good man and well spoken. This day we perceive that the Lord is among us.] Since we are all of one heart and one soul in his service, and you are not guilty of this apostasy. Of bees they say that stir and strife among them is a sign their queen is about to remove, to leave the hive, and to be gone. So God; dissension driveth him from a people, and lets in dissolution.
Ellicott's Commentary on Joshua 22:31
(31) We perceive that the Lord is among us, because ye have not committed this trespass . . .—The best token of the Divine presence among men is the Divine likeness and holiness in men. “if we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie . . . but if we walk in the light, we have fellowship one with another.”
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Joshua 22:31
Verse 31. We perceive that the Lord is among us] Or, according to the Targum of Jonathan. "This day we know that the majesty of Jehovah dwelleth among us, because ye have not committed this prevarication against the WORD of the Lord, and thus ye have delivered the children of Israel from the hand of the WORD of the Lord." They rejoice to find them innocent, and that there is no ground of quarrel between the children of the same family. And from this they draw a very favourable conclusion, that as God was among them as the sole object of their religious worship, so he would abide with them as their protector and their portion; and as they were his friends, they take it for granted that he will deliver them from the hands of their enemies.
Cambridge Bible on Joshua 22:31
31. is among us] Phinehas recognises the presence of God in the congregation, because His Providence had restrained their brethren from even the semblance of idolatry. out of the hand of the Lord] As otherwise a punishment like that in Numbers 25:9 might have again fallen on the whole people.

31. The Lord is among us — The commission were more than satisfied with the explanation; they were delighted with the loyalty and fidelity of their misjudged brethren.
