Joshua 18:2 In-Context

1 The whole community of the Israelites assembled at Shiloh and set up the meeting tent there. The conquered land lay before them.
2 Among the Israelites, seven tribes were left that had not yet received their legacy.
3 Joshua said to the Israelites, "How long will you avoid going to take over the land that the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has given you?
4 Pick out three men for each tribe. I will send them out, and they will go up and travel throughout the land. They will write a description of it as the basis for determining their legacy. Then they will come back to me.
5 They will divide up the land among themselves into seven portions. Judah will stay on its territory to the south. The house of Joseph will stay on their territory to the north.
