It also stretched towards the northside by Michmethah, coming back east to Taanathshiloh. Besides reaching the border of a bunch of towns most people can’t pronounce, the chapter concluded with unfortunate news.

The children of Joseph were unable to fully drive out all of the Canaanites that lived in Gezer. Still, many Canaanites lived among the Ephraimites to the very writing of this book of Joshua.
