Their families formed the original twelve tribes. Later, God divided the land of Canaan among the twelve tribes. God did not give the tribe of Levi any land. This is because God chose Levi’s descendants to become priests. They served in the places where each of the other tribes lived. Joseph’s land was given to the descendants of his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
