THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL GIVE AN INHERITANCE TO JOSHUA. (Joshua 19:49-51)
According to the word of the Lord they gave him the city which he asked—It was most proper that the great leader should receive an inheritance suited to his dignity, and as a reward for his public services. But the gift was not left to the spontaneous feelings of a grateful people. It was conferred "according to the word of the Lord"—probably an unrecorded promise, similar to what had been made to Caleb (Joshua 14:9).
Timnath-serah—or Heres, on Mount Gaash (Judges 2:9). Joshua founded it, and was afterwards buried there (Joshua 24:30).
