The Mt. Ebal Curse Tablet
[Ebal, thirty-one of thirty-three]
Application III
There are alternatives which, in fact, are more elegant than A.
For example, Canada, rather than the United States, leases Joshua’s Altar.
Why is that more elegant? Canadian law, unlike that of the U.S., does not gravely impede interactions with the Palestinian Authority.
In exchange for Canada’s efforts, the U.S. would reward Canada with concessions.
Solution C is similar. It involves another country stepping forward with the lease. That one the P.A.trusts. It is also one that the U.S. is assured will accomplish the goals listed in this memorandum.
Achieving B or C requires talent and finesse. Again, one should not expect such from a president’s son-in-law or golf buddy. However, it is attainable for an expert diplomatic corps.
Now, for a question: What country, other than Canada, do you think is appropriate to lease Joshua’s Altar?
Let me know in the comments section.

Application IV
[Ebal, thirty-two of thirty-three]
What action should you take in this matter?
Consider contacting your congressional delegation.
One of the easiest ways is to visit your representative’s and your senators’ home pages. Then click the “Contact” button. There, you complete your personal information. Afterwards, you identify the subject of interest. I clicked “international relations”.
In the message block, you might write something like this:
Dear Representative ________,
(or Senator ________,)
We should give Moses, Joshua, and the Hebrews of the Conquest a chance to prove who they are!
Please work toward the U.S. leasing Joshua’s Altar in Judea / Samaria.
In thirty-two posts, the website captivatingtwists.com details the altar’s plight. To access these, hover over topics in the site’s navigation bar. Then click “The Mount Ebal Curse Tablet.”
There you find these arguments:
- On Mt. Ebal, evidence of Joshua and the Hebrews of the Conquest may lie exposed;
- Such evidence challenges world history;
- Threats of the altar’s destruction mandate its prompt excavation;
- Despite the geopolitical dangers, the U.S. should intervene; and
- A U.S. lease will best allay the issues presented.
Please read these posts.
Afterwards, support legislative measures to make the lease a reality.
Thank you for representing me in Washington and on the world stage.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
_____________

Now, for a question. How many such messages must your congressional delegation receive before they take notice?

Conclusion
[Ebal, thirty-three of thirty-three]
Do not ignore the Curse Tablet. Act on it!
Why?
“The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see.”
Winston Churchill
We embarked on an epic journey. We glanced at the Late Bronze Age through the Greco-Roman period. In the modern era, we pondered Wellhausen’s musings. Afterwards, we witnessed Adam Zertal’s enigmatic discovery and Frankie Snyder’s curious find. We persisted through the scourge of COVID-19. Then we viewed Stripling’s rocky attempts to introduce the tablet to the world.
We also engaged in a scientific assignment and a legal measure.
We have seen that Mt. Ebal’s Joshua’s Altar lies in a dangerous part of the world. There, it faces genuine threats.
This highlights a truth: Without evidence of the past, we have little hope of discerning its wisdom.
If destroyed, its secrets cannot hope to instruct our future.
This situation demands a forceful response.
This includes the U.S. leasing Joshua’s Altar.
Why? Clarifying evidence may lie on Mt. Ebal, evidence of monumental importance.
Losing it would constitute a disaster of incomprehensible proportions.
Justifications for vigilance and action abound.
Therefore, we must do something now! Do not let this opportunity to glimpse the remote past turn to dust! How, then, could it inform our future?
For this reason, I wrote the congressional messages discussed in the previous post. They argue for leasing Joshua’s Altar.
Why? The tablet presents actionable evidence. Its assault on history is credible. Delay imperils precious testimony.
Final Thoughts
We now reach the end of our Mount Ebal adventure.
Share what you have learned. Tell of the forceful narrative of the Curse Tablet.
Also, encourage the lease and proper excavation of Joshua’s Altar.
Afterwards, the Curse Tablet may testify not to a possibility. Then it could underscore an inescapable reality.
What might this reality be?
Weigh:
If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me.
The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to him.
Philip found Nathanael and told him “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold–Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
But now apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets. 1
What is the key takeaway? It is this: Evidence clarifying the above must not remain at risk! 1
Now, for questions: How likely are authorities to respond accordingly? What circumstances could improve those chances?
