And I gave Gilead unto Machir. ] The son of Manasseh; not to him personally, who cannot be thought to have been living at this time, but to his posterity, to the Machirites; see ( Numbers 32:40 ) .
13
and the rest of Gil`ad, and all Bashan, the kingdom of `Og, gave I to the half-tribe of Menashsheh; all the region of Argov, even all Bashan. (The same is called the land of Refa'im.
14
Ya'ir the son of Menashsheh took all the region of Argov, to the border of the Geshuri and the Ma`akhati, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvot-Ya'ir, to this day.)
16
To the Re'uveni and to the Gadi I gave from Gil`ad even to the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and the border [of it], even to the river Yabbok, which is the border of the children of `Ammon;
17
the `Aravah also, and the Yarden and the border [of it], from Kinneret even to the sea of the `Aravah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
