Numbers 13:11 meaning and explanation
from the tribe of Manasseh (a tribe of Joseph), Gaddi son of Susi;
Numbers 13:11, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
This verse falls within the list of twelve men Moses sent from the Wilderness of Paran to scout the land of Canaan, one leader from each ancestral tribe. Gaddi son of Susi represents Manasseh, and the parenthetical note that Manasseh was a tribe of Joseph reflects how Joseph's two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, each became a full tribe in Israel's reckoning, so Joseph's line received two representatives rather than one.
