For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.
Los descendientes de José se habían convertido en dos tribus separadas: Manasés y Efraín. Así que no dieron a los levitas ninguna porción de la tierra misma, excepto ciudades para vivir junto con los pastizales circundantes para su ganado y posesiones.
Los levitas no recibieron territorio propio, sino solo ciudades con pastizales para vivir y mantener su ganado.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Joshua, the Israelites were dividing the Promised Land among the tribes after their conquest, as part of God's fulfillment of His covenant to give them an inheritance. Joseph's descendants were counted as two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim, which adjusted the land allocations among the twelve tribes. However, the Levites, who served as priests and were dedicated to God, received no tribal territory but were given specific cities and surrounding pastures for their needs and livestock.
