Exegesis
The title eved YHWH {עֶבֶד יְהוָה | ’e-ved yə-hō-wāh} highlights Moses’s covenantal service. English mirrors the Hebrew’s tripartite structure—linking phrase, main verb with possession, and parallel relative clause—while clarifying tribal inheritance.
Root and etymology
’-b-dayin–bet–dalet

In context — Joshua 13:8
