Joseph’s descendents complained to Joshua saying: « Why have you given us only one portion and only one lot as an inheritance when we make up a large population having been greatly blessed by God? » Joshua replied: « If you are so numerous, go up to the forest region and clear an area for yourselves in the land of the Perizzi and of the Refaim since Mount Efrayim is too cramped for you. » And the children of Joseph said: « The mountain is not enough for us and all the Canaanites that dwell in the valley in the land have iron chariots as do those in Beth Shean and its dependencies and those in the Jezreel Valley. »
