  • Num 26:53-56 : 53 “Divide the land as an inheritance among these people, based on the number of names in each group. 54 Increase the inheritance for a larger group and decrease it for a smaller group; each person’s inheritance is to be given according to the number of those registered in his group. 55 But the division of the land is to be determined by lot; they will receive their inheritance based on the names of their ancestral tribes. 56 Each inheritance is to be divided by lot among the larger and smaller groups alike.
  • Num 32:2-9 : 2 The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the congregation, saying: 3 "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon— 4 this land that the Lord defeated before the congregation of Israel—is a land suitable for livestock, and your servants have livestock." 5 They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan." 6 But Moses replied to the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben, "Should your brothers go to war while you stay here? 7 Why would you discourage the hearts of the Israelites from crossing into the land that the Lord has given them? 8 This is what your ancestors did when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. 9 They went up to the Valley of Eshcol, saw the land, and discouraged the hearts of the Israelites from entering the land that the Lord had given them. 10 So the Lord’s anger burned that day, and He swore, saying: 11 'None of the men who came up from Egypt, twenty years old and older, will see the land I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they have not fully followed Me— 12 except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua son of Nun, for they have fully followed the Lord.' 13 The Lord’s anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness for forty years until the entire generation that had done evil in His sight was gone. 14 "Now you have risen in place of your ancestors, a brood of sinful men, to increase still further the fierce anger of the Lord against Israel.

I swore to give it to your ancestors, and this land will fall to you as an inheritance. 15 This will be the boundary of the land: On the northern side, it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon to the entrance of Zedad. 16 It will continue to Hamath, Berothah, and Sibraim, which lies between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath, as far as Hazar Hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran. 17 The boundary will extend from the sea to Hazar Enan, along the northern border of Damascus, with the border of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern boundary. 18 On the eastern side, the boundary will run from Hauran and Damascus along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, down to the eastern sea as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary. 19 On the southern side, it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribah Kadesh, along the Wadi of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary. 20 On the western side, the boundary will be the Great Sea, from the southern border to a point opposite Lebo Hamath. This will be the western boundary. 21 You are to divide this land among the tribes of Israel. 22 You are to allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who reside among you and have children.
