How did isiah the prophet die?

Why was the tribe of manasseh split in half?

The tribe of Manasseh was split into two half-tribes because when Moses allocated land to the Israelite tribes, the eastern half of Manasseh requested to settle on the east side of the Jordan River due to their large herds of livestock. This division allowed them to have land suitable for their needs while still remaining part of the tribe of Manasseh.

Did Manasseh son of Hezekiah kill Zacharia?

No. According to tradition, Menashe (Manasseh) killed Isaiah (Talmud, Yevamot 49b). Zachariah, son of Yehoyadah, was killed by an earlier king named Yoash (2 Chronicles ch.24). Not to be confused with the more well-known Zachariah, who lived at the beginning of the Second Temple and authored his own prophetic book.


Three tribes that wanted the land of sihon and og on the east side of the Jordan?

The tribes were Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh. They saw the land of Sihon and Og as suitable for their livestock, and requested to settle there instead of crossing the Jordan with the rest of the Israelites. Moses granted their request under the condition that they still join the other tribes in conquering the land of Canaan.
