Joshua 18:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Joshua 18:8

6 You shall therefore survey the land in seven parts and bring the survey here to me, ^athat I may cast lots for you here before the Lord our God.

7 ^aBut the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. ^bAnd Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.”

8 Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to¹ survey the land, saying, “Go, walk ^athrough the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord in Shiloh.”

9 So the men went, passed through the land, and¹ wrote the survey in a book in seven parts by cities; and they came to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh.

10 Then Joshua cast ^alots for them in Shiloh before the Lord, and there ^bJoshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their¹ divisions.
