Numbers 32:30 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 32:30

But if they will not pass over with you armed
Shall change their minds, and break their promise, and refuse to go over the river Jordan with the other tribes, and armed ready to engage in battle with the enemy:

they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan;
take their lot there, but have no inheritance or possessions on this side Jordan.

Numbers 32:30 In-Context

28 So Moshe gave charge concerning them to El`azar the Kohen, and to Yehoshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers' [houses] of the tribes of the children of Yisra'el.

29 Moshe said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Re'uven will pass with you over the Yarden, every man who is armed to battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then you shall give them the land of Gil`ad for a possession:

30 but if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Kana`an.

31 The children of Gad and the children of Re'uven answered, saying, As the LORD has said to your servants, so will we do.

32 We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Kana`an, and the possession of our inheritance [shall remain] with us beyond the Yarden.
