Altar of whole stones on Ebal
After Ai Jesus builds an altar to God on Mount Ebal of whole stones untouched by iron — the law written on stones. Burnt offering and peace offerings. True worship’s form after enemies fall.
Latin
Post Gai Iesus aedificat altare Deo in monte Hebal de lapidibus integris non ferro tactis — lex in lapidibus. Holocaustum et pacifica. Forma cultus veri post hostes prostratos.
