Numbers 26-29
About the Reading:
We start out with another census. We then learn of a new rule that is made for a man who has no sons. That man's daughters is to get his inheritance. If no daughters, then go down a specific line in the family. We also learn more about offerings.
My Thoughts and Notes:
The part that stood out to me today was the inheritance...once I got through all the census stuff (still not any easier to get through). I would have thought, however, that this issue of a man's inheritance if he has no sons would have come up sooner. Maybe it was an issue before, but this is the first time that it was brought up to God. A fair and just ruling, give it to the daughters! It makes sense, right?
What stood out to you today?
