This is day 74 of our journey.
In order to give the remaining 7 tribes their inheritance, Joshua sends out surveyors to walk the land and divide it into pieces. He then casts lots to determine which land belongs to each of the tribes. After completing the division of the land, Joshua defines the 3 cities of refuge west of the Jordan to complement the 3 cities of refuge to the east.
Join me in Joshua 18-20 to learn of the inheritance of the remaining 7 tribes.
Key verses:
Joshua 18:10
Joshua drew lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord and divided the land among the Israelites according to their allotted portions.
Joshua 19:51
These are the land assignments which Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the Israelite tribal leaders made by drawing lots in Shiloh before the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting. So they finished dividing up the land.
Joshua 20:3
Anyone who accidentally kills someone can escape there; these cities will be a place of asylum from the avenger of blood.
