1 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).
2 tn Heb “received their inheritance, which Moses had assigned to them beyond the Jordan.”
3 tn Heb “assigned to the tribe of Gad, to the sons of Gad.”
4 tn Heb “and half of the land of the sons of Ammon.”
5 tn Heb “in front of.”
6 tn The words “Their territory ran” are not in the Hebrew text, but have been supplied for clarification.
7 tn Or “it included in the valley, Beth Haram.”
8 sn The Sea of Kinnereth is another name for the Sea of Galilee. See the note on the word “Kinnereth” in 11:2.
