Homilies on Joshua, Homilia XXI · §1

Jesus dismisses the eastern tribes

Jesus calls Reubenites, Gadites, half-Manasseh — praises their obedience. Return to your tents with riches. Brotherly peace after shared war.

Latin

Vocavit Iesus Rubenitas Gadditas dimidiam Manasse — laudavit oboedientiam. Revertimini ad tabernacula cum divitiis. Fraterna pax post commune bellum.
