Chapter 18 Conclusion and Chapter 19: The Tribal Territories
Rabbi Michael HattinThis lesson will discuss the delineation and distribution of the remaining tribal boundaries. Yehuda and Yosef, the two largest and most powerful tribes, received their allotment first, thus anchoring the nascent state to the south and to the north. The next tribe to merit the attention of the text is the tribe of Binyamin, whose portion of land falls in between that of Yosef and Yehuda. Chapter 19 outlines the borders of Shimon, Zevulun, Yissachar, Asher, Naftali, and Dan.
