Exegesis
The construct chain eretz Ephraim u’Menasheh {אֶרֶץ אֶפְרַיִם וּמְנַשֶּׁ֑ה | ʾereṣ ʾeprāyim ū-menāššeh} links two tribal allotments, and the preposition ad with hayam ha-acharon {עַד הַיָּם הָאַחֲרֽוֹן | ʿad hayyām hā-ʾaḥărôn} establishes the western boundary. The paratactic listing without an explicit verb reflects Hebrew stylistic preference in geographical descriptions.
In context — Deuteronomy 34:2
And all of Naphtali , the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, reaching to the western sea .
