Joshua 19:51

51 These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.

Joshua 19:51 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 19:51

These [are] the inheritances which Eleazar the priest, and
Joshua the son of Nun
The one the high priest, and the other the chief governor of the nation:

and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel;
the princes appointed for this service, whose names are given ( Numbers 34:18-28 ) ; the inheritances before described in the preceding chapters by their boundaries and cities, these the said persons

divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh;
and so has particular reference to the seven lots drawn there for seven of the tribes, by which their inheritances were assigned to them: and this was done

before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
see ( Joshua 18:1 Joshua 18:10 ) ;

so they made an end of dividing the country;
though it was not as yet wholly subdued.

50 By the orders of the Lord they gave him the town for which he made request, Timnath-serah in the hill-country of Ephraim: there, after building the town, he made his living-place.
