Joshua 7:14

7:14 In the morning you must approach in tribal order. The tribe the Lord selects must approach by clans. The clan the Lord selects must approach by families. The family the Lord selects must approach man by man.

Joshua 7:17

7:17 He then made the clans of Judah approach and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He made the clan of the Zerahites approach and Zabdi was selected.

tn Heb “by your tribes.”

tn Heb “takes forcefully, seizes.”

tn Heb “houses.”

tn Heb “by men.”

tn See the note on “Zabdi” in 1 Chr 7:1.

tn Heb “and he selected Zabdi.” The Lord is the apparent subject. The LXX supports reading a passive (Niphal) form here, as does the immediate context.
