The Two and Half Tribes and Israel/Palestine


As key world figures try once again to look at the Middle East "problem", this week we look at the area and ask about the significance of the land.
In Numbers 32 the tribes who were allocated the land East of the Jordan agreed they would help the rest of the tribes invade the land before they settled in their own land.
But can we take these stories as a prescription for the division of the same land today?
Comments please, and come with thoughts to the pub too!
