Joshua 18:7

Context
18:7 But the Levites will not have an allotted portion among you, for their inheritance is to serve the Lord. 1  Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their allotted land 2  east of the Jordan which Moses the Lord’s servant assigned them.”

Joshua 21:27

Context

21:27 They assigned to the Gershonite clans of the Levites the following cities: 3  from the half-tribe of Manasseh: Golan in Bashan (a city of refuge for one who committed manslaughter) and Beeshtarah, along with the grazing areas of each – a total of two cities;

Joshua 22:7

Context
22:7 (Now to one half-tribe of Manasseh, Moses had assigned land in Bashan; and to the other half Joshua had assigned land on the west side of the Jordan with their fellow Israelites.) When Joshua sent them home, 4  he rewarded 5  them,

Joshua 24:32

Context

24:32 The bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought up from Egypt, were buried at Shechem in the part of the field that Jacob bought from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for one hundred pieces of money. 6  So it became the inheritance of the tribe of Joseph. 7 

1 tn Or “the priesthood of the Lord.”

2 tn Or “inheritance.”

3 tn The words “they assigned” and “the following cities” are supplied for clarification (also in v. 34).

4 tn Heb “to their tents.”

5 tn Heb “blessed.”

6 tn Heb “one hundred qesitahs.” The Hebrew word קְשִׂיטָה (qesitah) is generally understood to refer to a unit of money, but the value and/or weight is unknown. The word occurs only here and in Gen 33:19 and Job 42:11.

7 tn Heb “and they became for the sons of Joseph an inheritance.” One might think “bones” is the subject of the verb “they became,” but the verb is masculine, while “bones” is feminine. The translation follows the emendation suggested in the BHS note, which appeals to the Syriac and Vulgate for support. The emended reading understands “the part (of the field)” as the subject of the verb “became.” The emended verb is feminine singular; this agrees with “the part” (of the field), which is feminine in Hebrew.
