“Adjoining the territory
Of Reuben,
From the east side
To the west side,
Judah was
One portion.”
Once again, in a very summary fashion of east to west, the territory of Judah was next to Reuben. In Joshua, chapter 15, Judah got the largest portion of land. Here, it is treated like the other tribes, as if it were not superior to them.
