1 Chronicles 12:31

The half-tribe of Manasseh supplied 18,000, who had been appointed specifically to come and establish David as king.

The territorial allotment for the tribe of Manasseh, the firstborn of Joseph, was allocated first to Machir the firstborn of Manasseh and father of Gilead. Since he had been a man of war, Gilead and Bashan were allocated to him.
