SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:8

Y la tierra de Tapúa fue de Manasés; pero la Tapúa que está junto al término de Manasés, es de los hijos de Efraín.

---

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 8. [Now] Manasseh had the land of Tappuah , etc.] The whole territory that went by that name, from a city of note in it, next mentioned; all the fields and villages in it belonged to the tribe of Manasseh: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh [belonged] to the children of Ephraim ; and was one of those separate cities they had among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh; though it seems they had only the city, not the territory adjacent to it, and which was named from it.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-13 - There was great communication between Manasseh and Ephraim. Though eac tribe had its inheritance, yet they should intermix one with another to do good offices one to another, as became those, who, though of different tribes, were all one Israel, and were bound to love a brethren. But they suffered the Canaanites to live among them, agains the command of God, to serve their own ends.
