13:8 Division of the land east of the Yordan

8Along with the other half of the half-tribe of Menashsheh, the tribes of Reuben and Gad had taken their inheritance on the other (eastern) side of the Yordan as approved by Yahweh’s servant Mosheh,[ref] 9from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Arnon riverbed, and the city that’s in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau near Medeba, to Dibon. 10Also, all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites who ruled in Heshbon, as far as the border with the Ammonites, 11and Gilead, and the territory of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and all Mt. Hermon, and all the Bashan as far as Salekah, 12all the kingdom of Og in the Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (what remained from the remnant of the Refa’ites). Mosheh had attacked them and captured their lands. 13But the Israelis didn’t capture the land of the Geshurites or the Maacathites and so those peoples live among the Israelis to this day.

14The only tribe that didn’t receive an inheritance was the tribe of Levi because the offerings given to Israel’s God Yahweh are their inheritance, just like he’d told them.[ref]

Tribal Allotments of the Promised Land

After the Israelites had conquered portions of the Promised Land and Joshua had grown old, the Lord directed him to divide the rest of the land among the tribes of Israel as their inheritance (Joshua 13-20). The eastern tribes had already been allotted their land under Moses’ leadership (Numbers 32), but they continued to help the other tribes drive out the Canaanites from land west of the Jordan River. The Lord also instructed the Israelites to designate several cities of refuge, where someone could flee for protection from an avenger if they accidentally killed someone (Numbers 35; Joshua 20).
