WEBVTT 00:00.460 --> 00:05.340 Chapter 17 There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the 00:05.340 --> 00:06.260 firstborn of Joseph. 00:06.880 --> 00:10.880 To it, from Maker, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, 00:11.100 --> 00:12.280 because he was a man of war. 00:12.800 --> 00:14.600 Therefore he had Gilead and Bashan. 00:15.120 --> 00:18.780 There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh, by their families. 00:19.280 --> 00:22.720 For the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helik, and for the children of 00:22.720 --> 00:25.980 Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hefer, 00:26.360 --> 00:27.600 and for the children of Shemaida. 00:27.600 --> 00:31.440 These were the male children of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, by their families. 00:32.660 --> 00:36.000 But Zelophehad, the son of Hefer, the son of Gilead, the son of Maker, 00:36.240 --> 00:38.820 the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. 00:39.400 --> 00:44.720 And these are the names of his daughters, Malah, and Noah, Haglah, Milcah, 00:45.180 --> 00:45.820 and Tirzah. 00:46.600 --> 00:50.540 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, 00:50.800 --> 00:54.520 and before the princes, saying, The Lord commanded Moses to give us an 00:54.520 --> 00:56.040 inheritance among our brethren. 00:56.040 --> 01:00.100 Therefore, according to the commandment of the Lord, he gave them an inheritance 01:00.100 --> 01:01.520 among the brethren of their father. 01:02.180 --> 01:06.100 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, 01:06.480 --> 01:10.000 which were on the other side of Jordan, because the daughters of Manasseh had an 01:10.000 --> 01:14.460 inheritance among his sons, and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead. 01:15.060 --> 01:18.920 And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Mikmathah, that lieth before Shechem. 01:19.380 --> 01:22.940 And the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of Antapua. 01:23.600 --> 01:27.780 Now Manasseh had the land of Tapua, but Tapua on the border of Manasseh 01:27.780 --> 01:29.120 belonged to the children of Ephraim. 01:29.740 --> 01:32.860 And the coast descended unto the river Cana, southward of the river. 01:33.400 --> 01:36.120 These cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh. 01:36.580 --> 01:40.340 The coast of Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and the outgoings 01:40.340 --> 01:41.400 of it were at the sea. 01:42.420 --> 01:46.360 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea is his 01:46.360 --> 01:46.620 border. 01:47.060 --> 01:50.540 And they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on the east. 01:50.540 --> 01:55.720 And Manasseh had in Issachar, and in Asher Bethshean, and her towns, and Iblium, 01:55.940 --> 02:00.160 and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor, and her towns, and the inhabitants of 02:00.160 --> 02:04.320 Endor, and her towns, and the inhabitants of Tanakh, and her towns, and the 02:04.320 --> 02:07.360 inhabitants of Megiddo, and her towns, even three countries. 02:08.040 --> 02:11.500 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities, 02:11.860 --> 02:13.640 but the Canaanites would dwell in that land. 02:14.420 --> 02:18.220 Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put 02:18.220 --> 02:21.280 the Canaanites to tribute, but did not utterly drive them out. 02:21.640 --> 02:25.760 And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but 02:25.760 --> 02:30.100 one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as 02:30.100 --> 02:31.600 the Lord hath blessed me hitherto? 02:32.020 --> 02:36.840 And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up to the wood 02:36.840 --> 02:41.100 country, and cut down for thyself therein the land of the Perizzites and of the 02:41.100 --> 02:43.880 giants, if Mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee. 02:44.100 --> 02:47.060 And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us, 02:47.280 --> 02:50.820 and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, 02:51.280 --> 02:55.100 both they who are of Bethshean and her towns, and they who are of the valley of 02:55.100 --> 02:55.680 Jezreel. 02:55.900 --> 02:59.940 And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, 03:00.020 --> 03:03.640 saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power. 03:04.360 --> 03:08.460 Thou shalt not have one lot only, but the mountain shall be thine. 03:08.940 --> 03:13.140 For it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it down, and the outgoings of it shall be 03:13.140 --> 03:13.520 thine. 03:13.520 --> 03:18.500 For thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, 03:18.960 --> 03:19.840 and though they be strong.
