17:1 The tribe of Manasseh, Joseph’s firstborn son, was also allotted land. 4 The descendants of Makir, Manasseh’s firstborn and the father of Gilead, received land, for they were warriors. 5 They were assigned Gilead and Bashan. 6 17:2 The rest of Manasseh’s descendants were also assigned land 7 by their clans, including the descendants of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These are the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph by their clans.
