~ Joshua's Allotment ~

When they had finished dividing the land
into its allotted portions,
the Israelites gave Joshua son of Nun
an inheritance among them,
as the Lord had commanded.
They gave him the town he asked for -
Timnath Gerah in the hill country of Ephraim.
And he built up the town and settled there.

These are the territories that Eleazar the priest,
Joshua son of Nun
and the heads of the tribal clans of Israel
assigned by lot at Shiloh
in the presence of the Lord
at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
And so they finished dividing the land.

(Joshua 19:49-51)
