49When they had made an end of dividing the land for inheritance by their coasts, the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] gave an inheritance to Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] the son of Nun [Posterity] among them: 50According to the word of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) they gave him the city which he asked, [even] Timnat-Serach [portion of the sun] in mount Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful]: and he built the city, and dwelt in it.

51These [are] the inheritances, which El’azar [God has helped] the priest, and Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] the son of Nun [Posterity], and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh [Place of Rest] before the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.
