Joshua 17:6

"Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;"

Key Reflection

This verse highlights the specific inheritance given to the tribe of Manasseh, emphasizing that despite not receiving a share within the Promised Land proper (which was divided among nine other tribes), Manasseh still received significant territories, including Gilead and Bashan beyond the Jordan River. This underscores God's provision for His people, even when their portion appears smaller or less conventional compared to others.
