“Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.”
Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance — the final principle: no tribe's inheritance may transfer to another. Each tribe maintains perpetual possession of its apportioned territory. This principle is foundational to Israel's covenant-theology: the land is an eternal gift, its distribution fixed by divine lot.
