Joseph the Elder was one of the first Nez Percé converts to Christianity and an active supporter of the tribe's longstanding peace with whites.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jewish Tribe
The two terms are nearly synonymous, signifying "branch", "rod", "staff", "sceptre", and in the sense of "tribe" are used figuratively with probable reference to the derivation of the tribe as a branch of the family of Jacob (stirps), or perhaps signifying originally a company led by a chief with a staff or sceptre.
The names of all of these, with the exception of Joseph, were given to their respective groups of descendants in the tribal organization, but instead of the tribe of Joseph we find in most of the lists and in the final traditional classification two tribes named after his two sons, Ephraim and Manasses.
The tribes, according to this view, were not constituted by a subdivision of Israel, but rather the nation was formed originally by the aggregation of some of the earlier tribes which had themselves grown out of the union of pre-existing groups of families and clans.

In effect, then, the leaders of Joseph's tribe were told that their claim was justified, and that it was God's command that in order to safeguard the hereditary property within the tribe, the daughters of Tzelofchad could marry only within the tribe and not to anyone outside of it.
It did not apply to those women of a tribe who had inherited property from their fathers and were married to members of another tribe, or to married women whose husbands or brothers had died and after having inherited their property, had married outside the tribe.
After each tribe had already received its share of the land of Israel, it did not matter if a woman married outside of her tribe since the hereditary properties of all the tribes were well-established.
