Joshua 13:8

Tribal Lands East of the Jordan

13:8 The other half of Manasseh, ⁷  Reuben, and Gad received their allotted tribal lands beyond the Jordan, ⁸  just as Moses, the Lord’s servant, had assigned them.

Joshua 14:8

14:8 My countrymen ⁹  who accompanied ¹⁰  me frightened the people, ¹¹  but I remained loyal to the Lord my God. ¹² 

[1:9]  ¹ tn Heb “Have I not commanded you?” The rhetorical question emphasizes the importance of the following command by reminding the listener that it is being repeated.

[1:9]  ² tn Or perhaps, “don’t get discouraged!”

[1:9]  ³ tn Heb “in all which you go.”

[11:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “They and all their camps with them came out, a people as numerous as the sand which is on the edge of the sea in multitude, and [with] horses and chariots very numerous.”

[11:5]  ⁷ tn Heb “and came and camped together.”

[11:7]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “Joshua and all the people of war with him came upon them at the Waters of Merom suddenly and fell upon them.”

[13:8]  ¹³ 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).

[13:8]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “received their inheritance, which Moses had assigned to them beyond the Jordan.”

[14:8]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “brothers.”

[14:8]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “went up with.”

[14:8]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “made the heart[s] of the people melt.”

[14:8]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “I filled up after the Lord my God,” an idiomatic statement meaning that Caleb remained loyal to the Lord.
