The Lord had commanded that he get this land. So they gave Joshua the town of Timnath Serah [69] in the hill country of Ephraim. This was the town that Joshua told them he wanted. So Joshua built the town stronger and lived there.
The people of Israel buried Joshua. They buried Joshua on the land that he had been given. That was at Timnath Heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
