Num. 34-36

God instituted a strong system of inheritance in the Hebrew culture. Each family was to pass down to its offspring its land and possessions. This engendered family cohesiveness and care. Belonging to a family was to be valued and cherished.

The inheritance God passes to us through Christ is far more valuable than mere lands and material objects. He has given us His Kingdom and a place at His Table … His Family is the richest in the universe. Christ is our brother and God our Father. Eternal benefits beyond description await us when we pass from this life.
