On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

The latter are substantially the same as those given by Moses in Nu 34:1-29; they here begin with the north, but in Numbers they begin with the south (Nu 34:3). It is only Canaan proper, exclusive of the possession of the two and a half tribes beyond Jordan, that is here divided. Joseph . . . two portions--according to the original promise of Jacob (Ge 48:5, 22).

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
