What the Bible says about Landmarks
(From Forerunner Commentary)
Landmarks are usually nocturnal creatures. When they move, they frequently do so at night, secretly.
The protection of boundary markers provided by God's law bespeaks the propriety of the private ownership of property. When wandering in the wilderness, the Israelites owned no land. Boundaries had no real significance to them, aside from the boundary of the camp at large. Now, coming into inheritance of the Promised Land, and its concomitant subdivision among the tribes, the sanctity of boundary markers becomes vital to the efficient and peaceful functioning of society.
The ongoing use of land obtained by the subterfuge of clandestinely moving landmarks is a superb image of “doing a lie”(Revelation 22:15)—that is, living a lie. As such, it is an image of hypocrisy. Those who make use of land not theirs by falsifying boundaries might well benefit from the theft for generations. (For more details, see Deuteronomy 19:14.)
