21:25 And out of the {i} half tribe of Manasseh, Tanach with her suburbs, and Gathrimmon with her suburbs; two cities.

(i) Who dwelt in Canaan.

21:25 Half the tribe - Namely, that half which dwelt in Canaan.

21:9-42 By mixing the Levites with the other tribes, they were made to see that the eyes of all Israel were upon them, and therefore it was their concern to walk so that their ministry might not be blamed.

Yet, blessed be God, we have the gospel more diffused amongst us.
