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.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes,.... Which were those of Benjamin, Simeon, Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and Dan:

which had not yet received their inheritance; and for which the lots were not cast.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Two tribes and a half had already received their portions on the east of Jordan; Judah, Ephraim, and the remaining half of Manasseh had also been provided for Josh. 15–17. Thus there remained still seven tribes out of the twelve to be settled in their homes.
