Thus saith the Lord GOD; This [shall be] the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph [shall have two] portions.
Ver. 13. This shall be the border.] Here the prophet returneth again to the dividing of the land, begun Ezekiel 45:1,2, &c., having hitherto interposed many most memorable matters, and of great use to the Church.
Joseph shall have two portions.] He had so by his father's will, and for his two sons adopted by his father.
