Note 1 topic: writing-background
וַיְשַׁלַּ֥ח יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ אֶת־הָעָ֑ם וַיֵּלְכ֧וּ בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל
and,dismissed Yəhōshūˊa DOM the,people and,went sons_of Yisrael
Here the author is providing background information to help readers understand what happens next in the story. See the discussion of this in the General Notes to this chapter. Alternate translation: “Now after Joshua had dismissed the people, the sons of Israel had gone”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
אִ֥ישׁ לְנַחֲלָת֖וֹ
(a)_man to,inheritance,his_own
The author is speaking as if the land that Joshua assigned to the tribes were literally an inheritance that they received from a relative who had died. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “each one to his assigned territory”
2:6–3:6 The second prologue also follows from the events of Josh 23–24 (see study note on Judg 1:1–3:6), adding the element of a third generation (2:10) who had no personal experience of the Lord’s mighty acts.
