9:6 They came to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal and said to him and the men of Israel, “We have come from a distant land. Make a treaty with us.”

Yosua 14:6

Yosua 17:4

17:4 They went before Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders and said, “The Lord told Moses to assign us land among our relatives.” ²  So Joshua ³  assigned them land among their uncles, as the Lord had commanded. ⁴

Yosua 21:1

Levitical Cities

21:1 The tribal leaders of the Levites went before Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun and the Israelite tribal leaders

Yosua 22:19

22:19 But if your own land ⁵  is impure, ⁶  cross over to the Lord’s own land, ⁷  where the Lord himself lives, ⁸  and settle down among us. ⁹  But don’t rebel against the Lord or us ¹⁰  by building for yourselves an altar aside from the altar of the Lord our God.

[14:6]  ¹ tn Heb “You know the word which the Lord spoke to Moses, the man of God, because of me and because of you in Kadesh Barnea.”

[14:6]  sn On this incident at Kadesh Barnea see Num 14:30.

[17:4]  ² tn Heb “The Lord commanded Moses to assign to us an inheritance in the midst of our brothers.” Since Zelophehad had no sons, “brothers” must refer to their uncles, as the next sentence makes clear.

[17:4]  ³ tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Joshua, although Eleazar is mentioned first in the preceding list.

[17:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “and he assigned to them in accordance with the mouth [i.e., command] of the Lord an inheritance in the midst of the brothers of their father.”

[22:19]  ⁵ tn Heb “the land of your possession.”

[22:19]  ⁶ sn The western tribes here imagine a possible motive for the action of the eastern tribes. T. C. Butler explains the significance of the land’s “impurity”: “East Jordan is impure because it is not Yahweh’s possession. Rather it is simply ‘your possession.’ That means it is land where Yahweh does not live, land which his presence has not sanctified and purified” (Joshua [WBC], 247).

[22:19]  ⁷ tn Heb “the land of the possession of the Lord.”

[22:19]  ⁸ tn Heb “where the dwelling place of the Lord resides.”

[22:19]  sn The phrase where the Lord himself lives refers to the tabernacle.

[22:19]  ⁹ tn Heb “and take for yourselves in our midst.”

[22:19]  ¹⁰ tc Heb “and us to you rebel.” The reading of the MT, the accusative sign with suffix (וְאֹתָנוּ, vÿ’otanu), is problematic with the verb “rebel” (מָרַד, marad). Many Hebrew mss correctly read the negative particle אַל (’al) for the preposition אֶל (’el, “to”).
