“For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance:”
For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance — the eastern tribes (Reuben, Gad, and half-Manasseh) have already received their Transjordanian inheritance, as negotiated in ch. 32. They are exempted from the lot-drawing for western Canaan, having settled east of the Jordan.
