[14:4]  1 tn Heb “and they did not assign a portion to the Levites in the land, except cities [in which] to live and their pastures for their cattle and property.”

[17:1]  2 tn Heb “and the lot belonged to the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph.”

[17:1]  3 tn Heb “to Makir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, for he was a man of war.”

[17:1]  4 tn Heb “Gilead and Bashan belonged to him.”

[19:8]  3 tn Heb “this was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Simeon.”

[23:4]  4 tn Heb “I have assigned by lots to you these remaining nations as an inheritance for your tribes.”

[23:4]  5 tn Heb “the Great Sea,” the typical designation for the Mediterranean Sea.

[23:4]  6 tn Heb “from the Jordan and all the nations which I cut off and the Great Sea [at] the place where the sun sets.” The relationship of the second half of the verse, which mentions nations already conquered, to the first half, which speaks of “remaining nations,” is difficult to understand.
