Joshua’s Death and Burial
29 Now it came about after these things that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being 110 years old. 30 And they buried him in the territory of his inheritance, in (A)Timnath-serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of Mount Gaash.
31 (B)Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who [a]survived Joshua, and had known every deed of the Lord which He had done for Israel.
32 Now (C)they buried the bones of Joseph, which the sons of Israel brought up from Egypt, at Shechem, in the plot of land (D)which Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for a hundred [b]pieces of money; and they became the inheritance of Joseph’s sons. 33 And Eleazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him at Gibeah, the town of his son (E)Phinehas, which was given to him in the hill country of Ephraim.

Living Bible
28 Then Joshua sent the people away to their own sections of the country.
29 Soon after this he died at the age of 110. 30 He was buried on his own estate at Timnath-serah, in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north side of the mountains of Gaash.
31 Israel obeyed the Lord throughout the lifetimes of Joshua and the other old men who had personally witnessed the amazing deeds the Lord had done for Israel.
32 The bones of Joseph, which the people of Israel had brought along when they left Egypt, were buried in Shechem, in the parcel of ground Jacob had bought[a] from the sons of Hamor. (The land was located in the territory assigned to the tribes of Joseph.)
33 Eleazar, the son of Aaron, also died; he was buried in the hill country of Ephraim, at Gibeah, the city that had been given to his son Phinehas.
