The second lot came out for Simeon. Their land was in the middle of Judah's land. Judah's portion was too much for them. Then came Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and Dan.

The children of Dan fought against Leshem and took it. They named the city Dan, after their forefather.

So they finished dividing the land. Then the people gave land to Joshua. They gave him the city he asked for. It was Timnathserah in the hills of Ephraim. He built the city and lived there. The land was divided by lot in Shiloh before Yahweh.

Joshua 19 · Grade 4

Joshua's Humble Portion

Name Date

Read and Think

The last six tribes received their lots. Simeon's inheritance was in the middle of Judah's. Judah's portion was too much for them. Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and Dan came next. The children of Dan also fought against Leshem. They took it and named it Dan.

Joshua received his own land only after every tribe had its land. According to Yahweh's commandment, they gave him the city he asked for. It was Timnathserah in the hill country of Ephraim. The great leader took his portion last. He built the city and lived there.

The chapter closes by naming who did the work. Eleazar the priest, Joshua, and the heads of the tribes divided the land by lot. They did it in Shiloh before Yahweh, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

Joshua 19 · Grade 5

Serving Before Receiving

Name Date

Read and Think

Joshua 19 completes the division of the land with six lots: Simeon, Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, and Dan. Simeon's inheritance was carved out of Judah's, since the portion of the children of Judah was too much for them. Dan's border went out beyond them, for the children of Dan went up and fought against Leshem, took it, and called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their forefather.

Then comes a quiet detail: So they finished distributing the land for inheritance by its borders. The children of Israel gave an inheritance to Joshua the son of Nun among them. According to Yahweh's commandment, they gave him the city which he asked, even Timnathserah in the hill country of Ephraim. Joshua, who led every battle, received his land last.

The chapter ends as it began, with God at the center. The land was distributed by lot in Shiloh before Yahweh, at the door of the Tent of Meeting. In the New Testament, Jesus says, whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant (Matthew 20:26). Joshua's example points to that same humble greatness.
