\\INTRODUCTION TO JOSHUA 12\\

This chapter gives a short account of the conquests made by the
Israelites, both in the times of Moses and of Joshua, and first of the
kingdom of Sihon and Og on the other side Jordan, in the times of
Moses, and which he gave to the two tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the
half tribe of Manasseh, and which are particularly described,
\\#Jos 12:1-6\\; and then of the kings and the countries on this side
Jordan whom Joshua conquered, \\#Jos 12:7,8\\; and the names of the
thirty one kingdoms are recited, that so it might be exactly known and
observed what were afterwards divided among the tribes and possessed by
them, \\#Jos 12:9-24\\.
