At verse 14, as well as here, notice is taken, that to the tribe of Levi, ?Moses gave no inheritance,? for so God had appointed. Num 18:20, . If they had been appointed to a lot entire by themselves, Moses would have served them first, not because it was his own tribe, but because it was God?s, but they must be provided for in another manner; their habitation must be scattered in all the tribes, and their maintenance brought out of all the tribes, and God himself was the portion both of their inheritance and of their cup. Jos 18:7; Deu 10:9; Deu 18:1,2 |
