Josua 17:8 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 17:8

[Now] Manasseh had the land of Tappuah
The whole territory that went by that name, from a city of note in it, next mentioned; all the fields and villages in it belonged to the tribe of Manasseh:

but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh [belonged] to the children of
Ephraim;
and was one of those separate cities they had among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh; though it seems they had only the city, not the territory adjacent to it, and which was named from it.

Josua 17:8 In-Context

6 denn die Töchter Manasse nahmen Erbteil unter seinen Söhnen, und das Land Gilead war den andern Kindern Manasses.
7 Und die Grenze Manasses war von Asser gen Michmethath, das vor Sichem liegt, und reicht zur Rechten an die von En-Thappuah;
8 denn das Land Thappuah ward dem Manasse; aber Thappuah an der Grenze Manasses ward den Kindern Ephraim;
9 darnach kommt sie herab zum Bach Kana zur Mittagsseite des Bachs, die Städte daselbst sind Ephraims unter den Städten Manasses; die Grenze Manasses aber geht weiter an der Mitternachtseite des Baches und endet am Meer.
10 Dem Ephraim ward's gegen Mittag und dem Manasse gegen Mitternacht, und das Meer ist seine Grenze; und sie sollen stoßen an Asser von Mitternacht und an Isaschar von Morgen.
