Joshua 23 (성경통독): This chapter tells about the covenant at Shechem. Joshua called together all the tribes of Israel at Shechem. He called in the elders, chiefs, judges, and officers. They presented themselves before God. Then Joshua addressed all the people and reminded them how God has blessed them starting with their ancestors until present day. But at the same time, Joshua reminds all the people that God is a jealous God who would not tolerate the worship of foreign gods. As everyone agreed that he would not forsake God and commited to stay firm,Joshua completed a Covenant for the people that day there at Shechem. He made it official, spelling it out in detail. Joshua wrote out all the directions and regulations into the Book of The Revelation of God. Then he took a large stone and set it up under the oak that was in the holy place of God.
