Exegesis
The prepositional phrase limnasheh {לִמְנַשֶּׁה | lî-menash-sheh} ‘to Manasseh’ introduces an ownership context, followed by the verb hayetah {הָיְתָה | hā-yə-ṯāh} ‘was’ which assigns eretz tappuach {אֶרֶץ תַּפּוּחַ | ʾĕ-reṣ ṭappû-ăḥ} as the possessed subject.
In context — Joshua 17:8
The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah itself on the border of Manasseh went to the sons of Ephraim .
