Exegesis
The construct gelilot ha-Yarden {גְּלִיל֣וֹת הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן | gᵊlîlōṯ hayyārēn} “districts of the Jordan” is immediately refined by the relative clause ’aser bə’eretz kəna‘an {אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּאֶ֣רֶץ כְּנָ֑עַן | ’ăšer bə’ereṣ kəna‘an}, specifying the land of Canaan. The coordinated subjects bənê Re’ûbēn, ū-bənê ḡād, waḥăṣṣî šēweṯ ham-menashsheh together undertake the construction of the miṣbēaḥ.
In context — Joshua 22:10
Upon arriving at the Jordan borderlands in the land of Canaan, the sons of Reuben, the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh built an altar by the Jordan—large and set conspicuously.
