7 The
boundary of the tribe of Manasseh extended from the border of Asher to
Micmethath, near Shechem. Then the boundary went south from Micmethath
to the settlement near the spring of Tappuah. 8 The
land surrounding Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah
itself, on the border of Manasseh’s territory, belonged to the tribe of
Ephraim. 9 From the spring of Tappuah, the boundary of Manasseh followed the Kanah Ravine to the Mediterranean Sea.[d] Several towns south of the ravine were inside Manasseh’s territory, but they actually belonged to the tribe of Ephraim. 10 In
general, however, the land south of the ravine belonged to Ephraim, and
the land north of the ravine belonged to Manasseh. Manasseh’s boundary
ran along the northern side of the ravine and ended at the Mediterranean
Sea. North of Manasseh was the territory of Asher, and to the east was
the territory of Issachar. Joshua 17:7-10
If you would like to study today's reading deeper I suggest searching for maps to get a visualization of what land was given to the tribes.
As an alternative I am including this video that I highly recommend!
