Joshua 9:20

9:20 We must let them live so we can escape the curse attached to the oath we swore to them.”

Joshua 13:8

Tribal Lands East of the Jordan

13:8 The other half of Manasseh, Reuben, and Gad received their allotted tribal lands beyond the Jordan, just as Moses, the Lord’s servant, had assigned them.


tn Heb “This is what we will do to them, keeping them alive so there will not be upon us anger concerning the oath which we swore to them.”

tn The MT reads “with him,” which is problematic, since the reference would be to the other half of the tribe of Manasseh (not the half mentioned in v. 7).

tn Heb “received their inheritance, which Moses had assigned to them beyond the Jordan.”
