• Josh 16:1-9 : 1 The lot for the sons of Joseph went out from the Jordan at Jericho, eastward to the waters of Jericho, into the wilderness, and ascended from Jericho through the hill country to Bethel. 2 It went out from Bethel to Luz, passed over to the territory of the Archite at Ataroth. 3 It descended westward to the territory of the Japhletite, as far as the border of Lower Beth-horon, and on to Gezer, and it ended at the sea. 4 So the sons of Joseph—Manasseh and Ephraim—received their inheritance. 5 The territory of the sons of Ephraim according to their clans was as follows: The border of their inheritance on the east began at Ataroth-addar and extended to Upper Beth-horon. 6 The border went westward to Michmethath on the north, turned eastward to Taanath-shiloh, and passed east of Janohah. 7 It descended from Janohah to Ataroth and Naarah, reached Jericho, and ended at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah, the border continued westward to the Brook of Kanah and ended at the sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim according to their clans. 9 Additionally, there were cities set apart for the sons of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages. 10 However, they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer. So the Canaanites have lived in the midst of Ephraim to this day, but they became forced laborers.
