Numbers 18:20

Duties of the Levites

18:20 The Lord spoke to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any portion of property among them – I am your portion and your inheritance among the Israelites.

Numbers 27:4

27:4 Why should the name of our father be lost from among his family because he had no son? Give us a possession among the relatives of our father.”


tn The phrase “of property” is supplied as a clarification.

tn That is, the possession of land, or property, among the other families of their tribe.

tn The word is “brothers,” but this can be interpreted more loosely to relatives. So also in v. 7.
