Yet there is force in Dillm.’s contention that the author who had just written 12 f. could hardly have immediately added the variant Deu 3:15<\/em><\/span>; hence the latter is reasonably taken as, like Deu 3:14<\/em><\/span>, a later insertion derived from Num 32:40<\/span>.<\/p>\n i.e. The half part of Gilead, as appears from Deu 3:12<\/span>,13<\/span>.

They received the land of Gilead (to the south of the Jabbok) as far as the brook Arnon, the middle of the valley and its territory. is a more precise definition of , expressive of the fact that the territory of these tribes was not to reach merely to the northern edge of the Arnon valley, but into the middle of it, viz., to the river Arnon, which flowed through the middle of the valley; and (and the border) is an explanatory apposition to what goes before, as in Num 34:6<\/span>, signifying, “viz., the border of the Arnon valley as far as the river<\/em>.” On the east, “ even unto Jabbok the brook, the<\/em> (western) border of the Ammonites<\/em> ” (i.e., as far as the upper Jabbok, the Nahr Ammn:<\/em> see at Num 21:24<\/span>); and on the west “ The Arabah<\/em> (the Ghor: see Deu 1:1<\/span>) and the Jordan with territory<\/em> ” (i.e., with its eastern bank), “ from Chinnereth<\/em> ” (i.e., the town from which the Sea of Galilee received the name of Sea of Chinnereth: Num 34:11<\/span>; see at Jos 19:35<\/span>) “ to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea under the slopes of Pisgah<\/em> (see at Num 21:15<\/span> and Num 27:12<\/span>) eastward<\/em> ” (i.e., merely the eastern side of the Arabah and Jordan). – In Deu 3:18-20<\/span> Moses reminds them of the conditions upon which he had given the two tribes and a half the land referred to for their inheritance (cf.

Gilead That is, the half part of Gilead. To Machir <\/p>\n That is, unto the children of Machir, son of Manasseh, for Machir was now dead. Half the valley Or rather, to the middle of the river: for the word rendered half, signifies commonly middle, and the same Hebrew word means both a valley and a brook, or river. And this sense is agreeable to the truth, that their land extended from Gilead unto Arnon, and, to speak exactly, to the middle of that river; for as that river was the border between them and others, so one half of it belonged to them, as the other half did to others; see Jos 12:2, where the same thing is expressed in the same words, in the Hebrew, though our translators render them there, from the middle of the river, and here, half of the valley.<\/p>\n And I gave Gilead unto Machir. 15.
