As the Israelites approach the Promised Land, the tribes of Reuben and Gad express their desire to settle on the east side of the Jordan River, where the land is suitable for their livestock. Moses initially reacts with concern, fearing that their request might discourage the other tribes from entering the Promised Land. However, after negotiation, he agrees to their settlement on the condition that they assist the other tribes in conquering Canaan before returning to their land. This chapter highlights the importance of unity and cooperation among the tribes as they prepare to enter the Promised Land. It also emphasizes the need for accountability and commitment to the collective mission of God's people. The agreement reached serves as a reminder of the balance between individual desires and communal responsibilities.
