Matthew Poole and continuators on Joshua 22:19

19 Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession be unclean , then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD, wherein the LORD's tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us : but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar, beside the altar of the LORD our God.

If you apprehend it to be so for want of the Tabernacle and Altar there; as the following words imply: if you now repent of your former choice in preferring the worldly commodities of that Country before the advantage of Gods presence and favour, and more frequent opportunities of his Service.

We will readily resign part of our possessions to you for the prevention of this sin and mischief, wherein they shew great zeal for Gods honour, and great pity and charity to their Brethren.

For all the tribes were united in one Body Politick, and made one Commonwealth, and one Church; and each Tribe was subject to the Laws and Commands of the whole Society, and of the Chief Ruler or Rulers thereof; so its disobedience to their just commands was properly Rebellion against them.
