		<description><![CDATA[    At its best, a tribe is a small nation.  It maintains itself in all the mundane aspects of life, takes care of its own welfare issues, polices and defends itself, and generally manages and governs itself.

		<description><![CDATA[It is impossible to understand the tribes of the Bible without having a basic understanding of the genealogical structure of the families in the Bible.  When I first put up the website, I created a jpeg file of the genealogy from Adam to the sons of Jacob.  That was a good start.
