challenge_v a_o large_a ground_n but_o that_o the_o speech_n be_v long_o about_o the_o posterity_n of_o manasse_n it_o come_v by_o occasion_n because_o the_o author_n of_o the_o book_n do_v repeat_v again_o how_o they_o have_v a_o place_n appoint_v they_o without_o cast_v of_o lot_n in_o the_o land_n of_o basan_n afterwards_o he_o rehearse_v that_o that_o be_v confirm_v by_o joshua_n which_o

any_o strife_n about_o they_o their_o lot_n be_v brief_o set_v forth_o but_o here_o arise_v a_o new_a question_n see_v the_o right_a of_o the_o first_o beget_v be_v pass_v from_o manasse_n to_o

to_o be_v inferior_a unto_o they_o but_o i_o do_v so_o interpret_v it_o that_o when_o the_o portion_n of_o manasse_n be_v large_a than_o according_a to_o the_o number_n of_o the_o man_n when_o just_a

have_v go_v forward_o manful_o and_o wise_o to_o challenge_v the_o land_n which_o be_v fall_v unto_o they_o by_o lot_n the_o victory_n be_v in_o their_o hand_n for_o they_o shall_v have_v attempt_v

that_o they_o obtain_v not_o those_o city_n it_o be_v impute_v to_o their_o own_o fault_n for_o the_o lot_n be_v to_o they_o a_o undoubted_a pledge_n of_o victory_n therefore_o they_o can_v not_o

so_o waste_v that_o they_o serve_v they_o to_o no_o use_n wherefore_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o many_o ruin_n be_v here_o bury_v and_o then_o it_o be_v to_o be_v think_v that_o where_o base_a town_n be_v through_o the_o fruitfulness_n of_o the_o soil_n and_o other_o commodity_n noble_a city_n be_v build_v for_o sure_o sichem_n be_v of_o sufficient_a renown_n to_o have_v have_v a_o name_n and_o
