SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:6
y a los hijos de Gersón, por las familias de la tribu de Isacar, y de la tribu de Aser, y de la tribu de Neftalí, y de la media tribu de Manasés en Basán, fueron dadas por suerte trece villas.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. And the children of Gershon [had] by lot out of the families of the tribe of Issachar , etc.] These were Levites who descended from Gershon, the eldest son of Levi, and had their cities by lot assigned them in tribes at a greater distance, not only out of Issachar, but out of the tribe of Asher, and out of the tribe of Naphtali, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan ; which was the other half of the tribe beyond Jordan: thirteen cities ; as many as were given out of the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - The Levites waited till the other tribes were provided for, before the preferred their claim to Joshua. They build their claim upon a very good foundation; not their own merits or services, but the Divin precept. The maintenance of ministers is not a thing left merely to the will of the people, that they may let them starve if they please; the which preach the gospel should live by the gospel, and should liv comfortably. (Jos 21:9-42)
