The information ends (verse 6b) with the redundant note that the land of Gilead, on the east side of the Jordan was assigned to the rest of the descendants of Manasseh.

For the sake of avoiding unnecessary words, it is possible to place verses 5-6 together:

• Joshua assigned land to Manasseh’s male descendants and to his female descendants. That is why the tribe of Manasseh received ten shares of land on the west side of the Jordan River in addition to the territories of Gilead and Bashan on the east side.
