17 Heshbon and all her cities that are in the plain, Dibon, and Bamothbaal and Bethbaalmeon,
18 and Jahazah and Kedemoth and Mephaath,
19 and Kirjathaim and Sibmah and Zarethshahar in the mount of the valley, {Emec}
20 and Bethpeor and Ashdothpisgah and Bethjeshimoth,
21 and all the cities of the plain and all the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur and Hur and Reba, who were princes of Sihon, dwelling in the country.
22 Balaam also, the son of Beor, the diviner, did the sons of Israel slay with the sword among those that were slain by them.
23 And the border of the sons of Reuben was the Jordan and the border thereof. This was the inheritance of the sons of Reuben according to their families, these cities with their villages.
24 Moses likewise gave unto the tribe of Gad, to the sons of Gad according to their families.
25 And their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead and half of the land of the sons of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before Rabbah,
26 and from Heshbon unto Ramathmizpeh, and Betonim, and from Mahanaim unto the border of Debir,
27 and the valley of Betharam and Bethnimrah and Succoth and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon, king of Heshbon, the Jordan and its border, even unto the edge of the sea of Chinnereth on the other side of the Jordan eastward.

Joshua 13:17-27 Meaning and Commentary

\\INTRODUCTION JOSHUA 13\\

In this chapter Joshua is informed by the Lord, or put in mind, that
part of the land of Canaan remained unconquered, and which it was; and
is directed to divide the whole land among the nine tribes, and the
half tribe of Manasseh, Jos 13:1-9; and since the two tribes of Reuben
and Gad, and the other half tribe of Manasseh, had received their
inheritance on the other side Jordan, Jos 13:8; that is described in
general, Jos 13:9-14; and, then the particular portion of Reuben,
Jos 13:15-23; and of Gad, Jos 13:24-28; and of the half tribe of
Manasseh, Jos 13:29-33.
