Num 18:20 | MHM | STEP | Numbers 18:20: The Priests and Levites Provided For This section explains how God provided for the priests and Levites. Unlike the other tribes of Israel, the Levites did not receive land as an inheritance. Instead, their needs were met through other means, such as tithes and offerings. This arrangement reminded them to trust God as their portion and inheritance, and to focus on their ministry rather than on gaining wealth or property. God arranged things so that both the Levites and the people would appreciate their unique roles and gifts, and so each group would be content with their own blessings. The Levites’ support came in special ways to show God’s care and to keep them dedicated to His service . v. 20 : God told Aaron that the priests would have no share of land in Israel. Instead, God Himself would be their portion and inheritance. This meant they were to depend on Him and not on property or wealth like the other tribes. This teaches us to value God above anything in this world (Lamentations 3:24 ).
