Contextual Overview

² But there were still seven tribes of Israel that had not yet received their land. ³ So Joshua said to the Israelites: "Why do you wait so long to take your land? The Lord , the God of your ancestors, has given this land to you. ⁴ Choose three men from each tribe, and I will send them out to study the land. They will describe in writing the land their tribe wants as its share, and then they will come back to me. ⁵ They will divide the land into seven parts. The people of Judah will keep their land in the south, and the people of Joseph will keep their land in the north. ⁶ You should describe the seven parts of land in writing and bring what you have written to me. Then I will throw lots in the presence of the Lord our God. ⁷ But the Levites do not get any part of these lands, because they are priests, and their work is to serve the Lord . Gad, Reuben, and East Manasseh have received the land promised to them, which is east of the Jordan River. Moses, the servant of the Lord , gave it to them." ⁸ So the men who were chosen to map the land started out. Joshua told them, "Go and study the land and describe it in writing. Then come back to me, and I will throw lots in the presence of the Lord here in Shiloh." ⁹ So the men left and went into the land. They described in a scroll each town in the seven parts of the land. Then they came back to Joshua, who was still at the camp at Shiloh. ¹⁰ There Joshua threw lots in the presence of the Lord to choose the lands that should be given to each tribe.

And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord,.... For the seven tribes, as he had for the two tribes and a half at Gilgal; of the manner of casting lots, :-;

and there Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their division: the land that was divided into seven parts, he distributed to the seven tribes, as the lot came up for them, and then divided these several parts according to the families and households in each tribe.
