Contextual Overview

¹ The priests are from the tribe of Levi, and that tribe will not receive a share of the land with the Israelites. They will eat the offerings made to the Lord by fire, which is their share. ² They will not inherit any of the land like their brothers, but they will inherit the Lord himself, as he has promised them. ³ When you offer a bull or sheep as a sacrifice, you must share with the priests, giving them the shoulder, the cheeks, and the inner organs. ⁴ Give them the first of your grain, new wine, and oil, as well as the first wool you cut from your sheep. ⁵ The Lord your God has chosen the priests and their descendants out of all your tribes to stand and serve the Lord always. ⁶ If a Levite moves from one of your towns anywhere in Israel where he lives and comes to the place the Lord will choose, because he wants to serve the Lord there, ⁷ he may serve the Lord his God. He will be like his fellow Levites who serve there before the Lord . ⁸ They all will have an equal share of the food. That is separate from what he has received from the sale of family possessions.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore shall they have none inheritance among their brethren,.... Neither of the field, nor of the vineyard, as the above Targum, because provision was made for them otherwise, and especially because

the Lord is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them,

:-, which as it may be understood in a spiritual sense of their interest in God, as their covenant God, and of their enjoyment of him, and communion with him; so chiefly in a temporal sense of all those things in the sacrifices which the Lord claimed to himself, and these he gave unto them; so the same Targum interprets this of the twenty four gifts of the priesthood, enumerated

Numbers 18:1.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Deuteronomy 18:2. The Lord is their inheritance — He is the portion of their souls; and as to their bodies, they shall live by the offerings of the Lord made by fire, i. e., the meat-offering, the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering; and whatever was the Lord's right, in these or other offerings, he gave to the priests.
