14For the tribes of the Reubenites and Gadites, along with the half-tribe of Manasseh, have already received their inheritance.

| 4 | Joshua 13:8–12 | The other half of Manasseh, along with the Reubenites and Gadites, had received the inheritance Moses had given them beyond the Jordan to the east, just as Moses the servant of the LORD had assigned to them: The area from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Valley, along with the city in the middle of the valley, the whole plateau of Medeba as far as Dibon, and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the Ammonites; also Gilead and the territory of the Geshurites and Maacathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salecah— the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who had reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei and had remained as a remnant of the Rephaim.

Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, took the whole region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites. He renamed Bashan after himself, Havvoth-jair, by which it is called to this day. To Machir I gave Gilead, and to the Reubenites and Gadites I gave the territory from Gilead to the Arnon Valley (the middle of the valley was the border) and up to the Jabbok River, the border of the Ammonites.

Numbers 34:14 Summary
This verse reminds us that the Lord is a God of promise and provision, who gives each of us our own unique inheritance and role to play in His plan, as seen in Numbers 34:14. Just as the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance on the eastern side of the Jordan River, we can trust that the Lord will provide for us and guide us according to His plan, as mentioned in Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28. The Lord's plan is always good, even when we don't understand it, and we can trust in His goodness and love for us, as seen in Psalm 23:1-6 and John 10:10.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh receive their inheritance already?
The Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh received their inheritance already because they had requested to settle on the eastern side of the Jordan River, as seen in Numbers 32:1-42, and Moses had granted their request with the Lord's approval, as mentioned in Deuteronomy 3:12-20.
What does it mean that these tribes received their inheritance 'across the Jordan from Jericho, toward the sunrise'?
This phrase, mentioned in Numbers 34:15, indicates the geographical location of the inheritance, which was on the eastern side of the Jordan River, near the city of Jericho, and facing the sunrise, or the east, as described in Deuteronomy 4:41-49.
How did the Lord provide for the other nine and a half tribes?
The Lord provided for the other nine and a half tribes by commanding Moses to apportion the land by lot as an inheritance, as seen in Numbers 34:13, and guiding the process to ensure each tribe received their designated portion, as described in Numbers 33:50-34:12 and Joshua 13-19.
What can we learn from the way the Lord divided the land among the tribes of Israel?
We can learn from the way the Lord divided the land that He is a God of order, provision, and promise-keeping, as seen in Numbers 34:13 and Ezekiel 47:13-48:35, and that He is intimately involved in the details of our lives, guiding and directing us according to His plan, as mentioned in Proverbs 3:5-6 and Jeremiah 29:11.

- What are some areas in my life where I need to surrender to the Lord's plan and trust in His goodness, just as the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh did when they received their inheritance?
- In what ways can I be a good steward of the resources and blessings the Lord has given me, just as the Israelites were to be good stewards of the land they received?
Gill's Exposition on Numbers 34:14
For the tribe of the children of Reuben, according to the house of their fathers,.... That tribe, and all the families belonging to it: have received their inheritance, and half the tribe of Manasseh
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Numbers 34:14
And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with the coasts thereof round about. No JFB commentary on these verses.
