In verse 1 we meet Manasseh\u2019s first born, Machir, who heads the dominant family in Gilead: \u201cSince Machir, the first-born of Manasseh and the father of Gilead, was a valiant warrior, Gilead and Bashan were assigned to him.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The promise and its fulfillment<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The fulfillment of the promise made to the daughters of Zelophehad back in Numbers is phrased in terms that are reminiscent of the promise itself. Here, in verse 4: \u201cThey appeared before the priest Eleazer, Joshua son of Nun, and the chieftains\u2026\u201d; there (Numbers 27:1-2), they appeared before Moses and the chieftains\u2026<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Complaints &#8211; and low marks<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The complaints of the Josephites who had trouble conquering their portions, and griped that they were deprived (verses 12-18), is presented in contrast to the tenacious valor and stalwart dignity of Caleb, of the tribe of Judah, in acquiring his portion (chapter 14). In the pedagogy of the Tanakh, an implicit comparison is often used to express approval and disapproval.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","image":{"ID":86314,"id":86314,"title":"Points to
