Joshua 19

The Land Given to Simeon

1The second allotment of land went to the clans of the tribe of Simeon. Their homeland was surrounded by Judah’s territory.

This was the homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Simeon.

9Their allocation of land came from part of what had been given to Judah because Judah’s territory was too large for them. So the tribe of Simeon received an allocation within the territory of Judah.

The Land Given to Joshua

49After all the land was divided among the tribes, the Israelites gave a piece of land to Joshua as his allocation.

50For the Lord had said he could have any town he wanted. He chose Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim. He rebuilt the town and lived there.

51These are the territories that Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the tribal leaders allocated as grants of land to the tribes of Israel by casting sacred lots in the presence of the Lord at the entrance of the Tabernacle at Shiloh. So the division of the land was completed.[#19:51 Hebrew Tent of Meeting.]
