旧约 - 约书亚记（Joshua）第17章

This was the allotment for the tribe of Manasseh as Joseph's firstborn, that is, for Makir, Manasseh's firstborn. Makir was the ancestor of the Gileadites, who had received Gilead and Bashan because the Makirites were great soldiers.

So this allotment was for the rest of the people of Manasseh--the clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher and Shemida. These are the other male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph by their clans.

Now Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons but only daughters, whose names were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah.

They went to Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders and said, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers." So Joshua gave them an inheritance along with the brothers of their father, according to the LORD'S command.

Manasseh's share consisted of ten tracts of land besides Gilead and Bashan east of the Jordan,

because the daughters of the tribe of Manasseh received an inheritance among the sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the descendants of Manasseh.

The territory of Manasseh extended from Asher to Micmethath east of Shechem. The boundary ran southward from there to include the people living at En Tappuah.

(Manasseh had the land of Tappuah, but Tappuah itself, on the boundary of Manasseh, belonged to the Ephraimites.)

Then the boundary continued south to the Kanah Ravine. There were towns belonging to Ephraim lying among the towns of Manasseh, but the boundary of Manasseh was the northern side of the ravine and ended at the sea.

On the south the land belonged to Ephraim, on the north to Manasseh. The territory of Manasseh reached the sea and bordered Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.

Within Issachar and Asher, Manasseh also had Beth Shan, Ibleam and the people of Dor, Endor, Taanach and Megiddo, together with their surrounding settlements (the third in the list is Naphoth).

Yet the Manassites were not able to occupy these towns, for the Canaanites were determined to live in that region.

However, when the Israelites grew stronger, they subjected the Canaanites to forced labor but did not drive them out completely.

The people of Joseph said to Joshua, "Why have you given us only one allotment and one portion for an inheritance? We are a numerous people and the LORD has blessed us abundantly."

"If you are so numerous," Joshua answered, "and if the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you, go up into the forest and clear land for yourselves there in the land of the Perizzites and Rephaites."

The people of Joseph replied, "The hill country is not enough for us, and all the Canaanites who live in the plain have iron chariots, both those in Beth Shan and its settlements and those in the Valley of Jezreel."

But Joshua said to the house of Joseph--to Ephraim and Manasseh--"You are numerous and very powerful. You will have not only one allotment

but the forested hill country as well. Clear it, and its farthest limits will be yours; though the Canaanites have iron chariots and though they are strong, you can drive them out."

约书亚记第十七章　　第 17 章　

　　书 17:3-4> 没有先例的事，要不要争取，要不要网开一面？原则是──　

　　17:3-4　在以色列社会中按照传统习俗，妇女并不承受产业。但是摩西以公平打破惯例，将这五个女人所当得的田地分给她们（参民 27:1-11 ）。实际上，是神吩咐摩西加上一条律例，使处于同样情况之下的妇女也可以承受产业。约书亚现在便执行这条律例。人很容易用一句“事无先例”来拒绝合理的要求，但摩西与约书亚的做法是，先仔细研究这条律例的目的，以及每宗个案的法律依据，然后才作出决定。　

　　书 17:14-15> 强调困难与积极进取，你常偏向哪一边？　

　　17:14-15　要留意两种人，他们以截然不同的态度，去得神应许他们的地土。迦勒欣然前往，去占领神赐给他的产业，实现神对他的计划（ 14:12 ），他深信神必要帮助他赶出恶人，不久就会完全占领那些土地（ 15:14-15 ）。约瑟的子孙拈得肥沃的土地，但是不敢把那地的居民赶出去，反而要求得更多的地，他们和迦勒真是有天壤之别。但是约书亚要他们表示诚意，首先去未得之地砍伐树木，以扩大地土，他们虽然答应，却未能做得彻底（参士 1:27 ）。──《灵修版圣经注释》　

约书亚书注释　　一七1～13 玛拿西的产业部分在约但河东的基列和巴珊（1节），以及部分在西面（7～11节）。约但河西的土地是靠在北面迦南人的六座重要城堡——伯善、以伯莲、多珥、隐多珥、他纳和米吉多（11，12节）。一些以法莲的城邑是在玛拿西的土地内，而一些玛拿西的镇市又在亚设的土地内，并且……以萨迦（7～12节）。

　　西罗非哈的女儿继承玛拿西之子孙的产业，正如神吩咐摩西的（3，4节）（民二七l～7）。这样做是确保西罗非哈家仍分得产业，即使他们没有男性继承人。那些女儿必须与她们支派里的男子结婚，所以土地仍属于玛拿西支派。不至与其它支派通婚，土地被汲纳（民三六l～13）。

　　一七14～18 在以法莲和玛拿西得到约但河西毗连的土地后，他们投诉他们只得一阄（14节），并且他们被北面的城堡包围着（16节）。约书亚反驳他们的论调。当他们说他们因为人多，需要更多土地（14节）时，约书亚便告诉他们以他们的人力砍伐境地内的树林，并居住在那里（15节）。当他们投诉这里有迦南人在境内，迦南人又有铁车（16节），约书亚确保他们有高超的力量，把迦南人赶出去（18节）。

　　留意这里有两种人，他们以截然不同的态度，去得神应许他们的地土。迦勒欣然前往，去占领神赐给他的产业，实现神对他的计划（十四12），他深信神必要帮助他，赶出恶人，不久就会完全占领那些土地（十五14-15）。约瑟的子孙拈得肥沃的土地，却不敢把那地的居民赶出去，反而要求得更多的地，他们和迦勒真是有天壤之别。但是约书亚要他们表示诚意，首先去未得之地砍伐树木，以扩大地土，他们虽然答应，却未能做得彻底（参士一27）。

　　第14节的“一阄”意思指在约但河西以法莲和玛拿西的土地。约书亚说：“不可仅有一阄之地”（17节下），他的意思不是说他们可得到额外的土地，而是他们必定占据所有已分给他们的土地。
