Unlike in the early days when God subdivided the land among the 11 tribes according to size and other considerations, the future Israel shall see their land subdivided equally. The Levites will get the holy land. The key is that now aliens who have settled among them and have childred are to considered native-born Israelites. They will be alloted an inheritance among the tribe of Israel. This is irrespective of what tribe they settle in. The land size according the commentary is similar to that when the land was given to the Israelites during Joshua's time.
Heading back to NJ tonight. Looking forward to seeing the new digs for the folks in Princeton tomorrow. Dinner and a movie with the wife also tomorrow night. Heard that a friend of mine got laid off yesterday at a firm that covers us. Shame, he did a real good job but that is rarely a criteria for downsizing. Cancelled out of going to their outing on next Saturday since I was going solo and was planning to see him there. Oh well....
Praise for today, He alone is the one True God!
