Num 32:28-30 | MHM | STEP | Numbers 32:28: Inheritance of the Reubenites This passage tells how Moses officially arranged for the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh to receive land east of the Jordan River. Moses worked with Eleazar the priest and Joshua, who would be the next leader, because Moses knew he would not enter the promised land himself. The agreement included clear conditions: the tribes could have the land if they kept their promise to help the other Israelites conquer Canaan. This shows the importance of keeping promises and working together as a community. v. 28-30 : Moses gave instructions to Eleazar and Joshua about the agreement with the two and a half tribes ( v. 28-30 ). If the tribes crossed over the Jordan armed and helped fight, they could receive the land they wanted. But if they did not help, they would have to take their share in Canaan instead.
