Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:1–33 Moses had distributed the land east of the Jordan River

Before Moses died he had given land to the tribes of Reuben, Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh. In this section Yahweh reminded Joshua of the land that they still had not conquered. Then there is a detailed listing of the boundaries of the lands on the east side of the Jordan River.

Here is another possible section heading:

The land east of the Jordan River

13:8a

The other half of Manasseh,

¶ Half the clan of Manasseh
¶ The other half of the clan of Manasseh

The other half of Manasseh: The phrase The other half of Manasseh indicates those people from the tribe of Manasseh who chose to live on the east side of the Jordan River. This story is first told in Numbers 32.

In some languages it may be more natural to reverse the order of 8a and 8b, for example:

The tribes of Reuben and Gad and the other half of the tribe of Manasseh had already received their land on the east side of the Jordan River

13:8b

along with the Reubenites and Gadites, had received the inheritance

and the clans of Reuben and Gad received their inheritance
and the clans of Reuben and Gad had already received their land

along with the Reubenites and Gadites, had received the inheritance: The terms the Reubenites and Gadites indicate the tribe of Reuben and the tribe of Gad.

Here is another way to translate these names:

the tribe of Reuben and the tribe of Gad

13:8c

Moses had given them beyond the Jordan to the east,

which Moses gave them on the east side of the Jordan.
on the east side of the Jordan River.

Moses had given them beyond the Jordan to the east: The phrase beyond the Jordan to the east indicates that the land Moses gave these tribes was on the east side of the Jordan River.

13:8d

just as Moses the servant of the LORD had assigned to them:

Moses, the servant of Yahweh, gave this land to them.
Moses, Yahweh’s servant, gave them this land.

just as Moses the servant of the LORD had assigned to them: The phrase Moses the servant of the LORD was used in Joshua 1:1 and you should translate it the same way in both places.

Verse 8d repeats information from 8c, and some English versions combine these two phrases together. Here is another way to translate this verse:

The tribes of Reuben and Gad and the other half of the tribe of Manasseh had already received the land that Moses, the Lord’s servant, had given them; it was on the east side of the Jordan River. (GNT)
