Verse 8 is found in chapter 18 of Joshua. The tent of meeting is established at Shiloh, and Joshua rebukes the remaining tribes for not yet taking possession of their inheritance. Men are sent to survey and describe the land, after which lots are cast. The passage shows a transition from military conquest to territorial administration. The promise requires an active response from the tribes: receiving an inheritance does not eliminate the responsibility to occupy it.
