The High Place at Dan

Five standing stones (or masseboth) were found in the high place of the gate at Dan. This high place is similar to the ones Josiah destroyed in his reform (2 Kings 23:8) because they were used in the fertility rites of the culture. Standing stones could represent the presence of God (Gen. 28:18), or they could represent devotion to idolatry. The question is, what kind of standing stone are you? Why do you answer as you do?
