These tribes requested this land because it was suitable for their large herds and flocks. This decision was made after they promised to help the other Israelites conquer the land west of the Jordan. The half-tribe of Manasseh, descended from Joseph, signifies the continuation of Joseph's legacy and blessing, as seen in <a href="/genesis/48-19.htm">Genesis 48:19</a>, where Jacob prophesies that Manasseh will also become a great people.the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan These kingdoms were significant victories for the Israelites during their wilderness journey.

The cities provided strategic and economic advantages, while the surrounding territories offered agricultural benefits.

The application for a grant of the land on the eastern side of the Jordan appears to have been made only by the tribes of Reuben and Gad. The explanation, however, of this mention of the half tribe of Manasseh is found in <a href="/numbers/32-39.htm" title="And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it.">Numbers 32:39</a>, from which it appears that a portion of that tribe had been chiefly, if not exclusively, engaged in the conquest of certain portions of Gilead and Bashan, and had, therefore, justly acquired a claim to the possession of the districts which they had subjugated. (See <a href="/context/deuteronomy/3-13.htm" title="And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, gave I to the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants.">Deuteronomy 3:13-15</a>.)<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/numbers/32.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 33. - And unto half the tribe of Manasseh. As no mention has been previously made of this tribe in this connection, we are left to conjecture why it should, contrary to all analogy, have been divided at all, and why the one half should have received the remote regions of Northern Gilead and Bashan. That the tribe was divided at all can only be explained by the pre-existence of some schism in its ranks, the probable origin and nature of which are discussed in the notes on verses 39, 41. The enormous increase in the tribal numbers during the wanderings (see on chapter Numbers 26:34) may have made the division more advisable, and the adventurous and independent character of the Machirites may have rendered it almost a necessity. They had not apparently preferred any request to Moses, but since the trans-Jordanic territory was to be occupied, Moses probably prevented a grave difficulty by recognizing their claim to the conquests they had made. <a href="/commentaries/numbers/32-33.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>So Moses מֹשֶׁ֡ה (mō·šeh) Noun -
