Manassites

Fausset's Bible Dictionary

Judges 12:4-5. Translated for "which were escaped "fugitives, as in Judges 12:4; "you Gileadites with Jephthah are Ephraimite fugitives in the midst of the noble tribes Ephraim and Manasseh." The Gileadites paid them in their own coin, turning Ephraim's taunt upon themselves, when the Ephraimires as fugitives begged the Gileadites who had taken the Jordan fords to let them go over.
