“But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you;”
But your wives and your little ones and your livestock--I know that you have much livestock--shall abide in the cities which I have given you; -- the families and flocks remain in the Transjordanian territories while the warriors cross the Jordan. This arrangement allows the conquest to proceed while protecting vulnerable dependents.
