SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 22:9–34 The eastern clans built an altar beside the Jordan River

Before the clans of Reuben, Gad and half the clan of Manasseh returned to their homes on the east side of the Jordan River, they built an altar beside the river on the west side. This made the clans on the west side of the river angry. They thought the clans from the east side were rebelling against Yahweh and being unfaithful to the covenant. When the clans from the east side explained their reason for building the altar, the other Israelites were pleased and stopped being angry.

22:21a

Then the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh

¶ Then the clans of Reuben, Gad, and the half-clan of Manasseh
¶ Then the people of Reuben, Gad, and the half-clan of Manasseh

Then: The Hebrew conjunction that the BSB translates as Then indicates the next event in the storyline.

the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh: Here is another way to translate this part of the verse:

Then the clans of Reuben, Gad, and half the clan of Manasseh

22:21b

answered the leaders of the clans of Israel:

answered the leaders of the families of Israel,
said to the heads of the Israel clans,

answered the leaders of the clans of Israel: The Hebrew phrase that the BSB translates as the leaders of the clans of Israel is like the phrase in 22:14. It can also be translated “the heads of the families of Israel.”

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

answered the leaders of the families of Israel

said to the heads of the Israel clans,

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

וַֽ⁠יַּעֲנוּ֙ & וַֽ⁠יְדַבְּר֔וּ אֶת־רָאשֵׁ֖י

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_answered sons_of Reuven and=the_sons Gād and,the_half_of tribe_of of_(the),Manasseh and=they_spoke DOM heads_of clans_of Yisrael )

This phrase expresses a single idea by using two words connected with and. The word spoke tells in what way they answered. Alternate translation: [And … responded to the heads of]
