Half-Manasseh's territory detailed — And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, for half of the children of Machir, according to their families. Machir (Manasseh's eldest son) and his descendants receive half of Gilead and Og's two capitals (Ashtaroth and Edrei). The subdivision by family clans ensures equitable distribution within the half-tribe.
