And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me hitherto?
Los descendientes de José hablaron a Josué, diciendo: '¿Por qué nos has dado solamente una porción de tierra como herencia? Somos un pueblo numeroso porque el Señor nos ha bendecido grandemente.'
Los descendientes de José se quejaron a Josué porque consideraban que su porción de tierra era muy pequeña para su gran población bendecida por Dios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This took place during the division of the Promised Land among the twelve tribes of Israel after they had conquered Canaan. The tribe of Joseph had been divided into two tribes (Ephraim and Manasseh) through Joseph's two sons, but they were apparently given territory as one unit. These tribes had indeed grown large and prosperous, fulfilling God's promises to multiply Abraham's descendants.
