‏ Numbers 34:17-28

are the names It is worthy of remark, that Moses does not follow any order hitherto used in arranging the tribes, but places them exactly in the order in which they possessed the land, and according to their fraternal relationship. Judah is first, having the first lot, in the South (Josh 15:1); and next to him is Simeon, because his inheritance was "within the inheritance of the children of Judah" (Josh 19:1). Benjamin, the third, had his portion between "Judah and the children of Joseph" (Josh 18:11). Dan was the fourth, and his lot was westward of Benjamin (Josh 19:40-41). Manasseh and his brother Ephraim had their inheritances behind that of Benjamin (Josh 16:7). Next these dwelt Zebulun and Issachar (Josh 19:10-17); and then Asher and Naphtali (Josh 19:24-32).
