Contextual Overview

¹The Lord said: Each tribe will receive a section of land that runs from the eastern border of Israel west to the Mediterranean Sea. The northern border of Israel will run along the towns of Hethlon and Lebo-Hamath, and will end at Hazar-Enon, which is on the border between the kingdoms of Damascus and Hamath. The tribes will receive their share of land in the following order, from north to south: Dan, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Ephraim, Reuben, and Judah. ⁸ The Lord said: South of Judah's territory will be a special section of land. Its length will be eight miles, and its width will run from the eastern border of Israel west to the Mediterranean Sea. My temple will be located in this section of land. ⁹ An area in the center of this land will belong to me. It will be eight miles long and six miles wide. ¹⁰ I, the Lord , will give half of my sacred land to the priests. Their share will be eight miles long and three miles wide, and my temple will be right in the middle. ¹¹ Only priests who are descendants of Zadok will receive a share of this sacred land, because they remained faithful to me when the Levites and the rest of the Israelites started sinning. ¹² The land belonging to the priests will be the most sacred area and will lie south of the area that belongs to the Levites. ¹³ I will give the other half of my sacred land to the Levites. Their share will also be eight miles long and three miles wide, ¹⁴ and they must never sell or trade any of this land—it is the best land and belongs to me. ¹⁵ South of my sacred land will be a section eight miles long and two miles wide. It will not be sacred, but will belong to the people of Israel and will include the city of Jerusalem, together with its houses and pastureland. ¹⁶ The city will be a square: Each side will be a mile and a half long,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon shall have a portion. Close by the border of Benjamin, running east and west, Simeon's part and inheritance in the land shall be; even such true Israelites as "hear", understand, and believe the Gospel, and practise what they hear. This tribe is not now to be divided and scattered in Israel, or to have its inheritance in Judah, as formerly, Genesis 49:5, but to be distinct, and have a portion by itself.
