The Twelve Tribes

The Twelve Tribes is a religious group that identifies with the twelve sons of Jacob from the Bible, believing they are restoring the original faith of early Christianity. They live in communal, self-sufficient communities that emphasize strict religious practices, traditional craftsmanship, and daily prayer. Their beliefs combine Christianity with Old Testament principles, and members often dress plainly, adhere to strict discipline, and avoid modern technology. The group seeks to create a close-knit spiritual family, emphasizing discipline, obedience, and biblical teachings as core to their way of life.
