Josué 14:2 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 14:2

By lot [was] their inheritance
Every tribe had its part and portion assigned to it, by the casting of lots; which was done to prevent any future quarrels, animosities and strifes among the tribes, the disposition being of the Lord; and to show the exact agreement between the lot and the divine predictions by Jacob and Moses; and to make it appear that the division of the land was not owing to the private combination of the above men, and their private settlement of it; but to the providence of God, the directors of the lot; their chief business was to see that the lot was executed in a faithful manner, and that every tribe had its allotment according to it. In this Canaan was a type of the heavenly inheritance, which the saints obtain by lot, in and through Christ, the antitypical Joshua, ( Ephesians 1:11 ) ;

as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses,
( Numbers 26:55 Numbers 26:56 ) ;

for the nine tribes, and [for] the half tribe;
see ( Joshua 13:7 ) ; the reason why this number of them is particularly mentioned follows.

Josué 14:2 In-Context

1 División de la tierra al occidente del Jordán
Las demás tribus de Israel recibieron porciones de tierra en Canaán asignadas por el sacerdote Eleazar, por Josué, hijo de Nun, y por los jefes de las tribus.
2 Esas nueve tribus y media recibieron sus porciones de tierra mediante un sorteo sagrado, según el mandato que el Señor
había dado por medio de Moisés.
3 Moisés ya les había asignado una porción de tierra a las dos tribus y media que estaban al oriente del río Jordán, pero no había entregado ninguna porción a los levitas.
4 Los descendientes de José se habían separado en dos tribus distintas: Manasés y Efraín. Y a los levitas no se les dio ninguna porción de tierra, únicamente ciudades donde vivir, rodeadas de pastizales para sus animales y posesiones.
5 De modo que se distribuyó la tierra exactamente según las órdenes que el Señor
había dado a Moisés.
