Joshua 17:17

Context
17:17 Joshua said to the family 7  of Joseph – to both Ephraim and Manasseh: “You have many people and great military strength. You will not have just one tribal allotment.

1 tn Heb “took.”

2 tn Heb “according to all which the Lord said to Moses.” The translation assumes this refers to the promise of the land (see 1:3). Another possibility is that it refers to the Lord’s instructions, in which case the phrase could be translated, “just as the Lord had instructed Moses” (so NLT; cf. also NIV “had directed Moses”).

3 tn Heb “and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their allotted portions by their tribes.”

4 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).

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

6 tn Heb “and the cities were at the end of the tribe of the sons of Judah, at the border of Edom, to the south.”

7 tn Heb “house.”
