Bible Verses About The Tribes of Israel: Canaan divided amongst nine and a half of, by lot
Verses on Canaan divided amongst nine and a half of, by lot
These are the inheritances which the people of Isra'el took in the land of Kena'an, which El'azar the cohen, Y'hoshua the son of Nun and the heads of the ancestral clans of the tribes of the people of Isra'el distributed to them
by lot for them to inherit, as ADONAI ordered through Moshe, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.
Moshe had already given the inheritances to the two tribes and the half-tribe beyond the Yarden; to the L'vi'im he gave no inheritance among them.
The descendants of Yosef constituted two tribes, M'nasheh and Efrayim; and they gave no portion of the land to the L'vi'im except cities to live in, with the open land surrounding them for their livestock and crops.
As ADONAI had ordered Moshe, so the people of Isra'el did - they divided the land.
