Contextual Overview

¹⁶Then they approached him and said, “We want to build sheep pens here for our livestock and cities for our dependents. ¹⁷But we will arm ourselves and be ready to go ahead of the Israelites until we have brought them into their place. Meanwhile, our dependents will remain in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land. ¹⁸We will not return to our homes until each of the Israelites has taken possession of his inheritance. ¹⁹Yet we will not have an inheritance with them across the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance will be across the Jordan to the east.” ²⁰Moses replied to them, “If you do this—if you arm yourselves for battle before the Lord, ²¹and every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the Lord until he has driven his enemies from his presence, ²²and the land is subdued before the Lord—afterward you may return and be free from obligation to the Lord and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the Lord. ²³But if you don’t do this, you will certainly sin against the Lord; be sure your sin will catch up with you. ²⁴Build cities for your dependents and pens for your flocks, but do what you have promised.” ²⁵The Gadites and Reubenites answered Moses, “Your servants will do just as my lord commands.
