This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
i.e. Of that part of the tribe of Joseph which is peculiarly called
the tribe of Manasseh, as the other part of it was called the tribe of Ephraim, Num_13:8. The name of Joseph is elsewhere appropriated to Ephraim, as Eze_37:16,19 Re 7:8; here to Manasseh; possibly to aggravate the sin of the ruler of this tribe, who did so basely degenerate from his noble ancestor, Joseph.
