Ezekiel 47:13

Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

Joseph shall have two portions - That is, In Ephraim and Manasseh, his two sons, who each had a separate inheritance.

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

The ideal reallotment of the land to the twelve tribes of Israel is found in Ezekiel 47:1348:14.

The special mention of Joseph‘s portions was in order to express that the twelve portions were to be exclusive of Levi‘s land, which was to be provided out of the “oblation.”
