Joshua 16-19

These chapters cover the rest of the division of land by each tribe. There is not a whole lot I an say about these chapters, since they largely list cities I am not familiar with.

A couple things stand out:
Ephraim was so big that it had multiple parts. It appears they did not get a continuous portion of land.
The land division seemed to occur piecemeal, like they took a tribe and figured out the land. Then moved onto the next tribe.
The Canaanifes were not chased out of a number of cities. I wonder if that implies that if it is not otherwise stated, then the Canaanites were chased out of each city that is listed.
