God gives the land, and rest unto the Israelites, according to his promise Jarmuth Jarmuth was a city located in the territory allotted to the tribe of Issachar. It is mentioned in the context of the Levitical cities given to the descendants of Gershon.

Persons / Places / Events 1. JarmuthA city allocated to the Levites within the territory of Issachar. It was one of the cities given to the Levites as part of their inheritance, emphasizing the provision for those who served in the temple and religious duties. 2. En-gannim Another city given to the Levites in the territory of Issachar. The name means "fountain of gardens," indicating a place of sustenance and life, which is fitting for a city given to those who ministered to the spiritual needs of Israel. 3. Levites The tribe of Levi was set apart for religious duties and service to God. They did not receive a large territorial inheritance like the other tribes but were given specific cities and pasturelands throughout Israel. 4. Issachar One of the twelve tribes of Israel, whose territory included the cities of Jarmuth and En-gannim. The tribe of Issachar was known for its agricultural richness and strategic location. 5. Pasturelands These lands were essential for the Levites' sustenance, providing for their livestock and ensuring their ability to focus on their spiritual duties without the need for extensive agricultural labor. Teaching Points God's Provision for His ServantsJust as God provided for the Levites through the allocation of cities and pasturelands, He continues to provide for those who serve Him today. This encourages believers to trust in God's provision and to support those in ministry. Spiritual Inheritance The Levites' inheritance was not land but the privilege of serving God. This teaches us that our true inheritance is spiritual, found in our relationship with God and our service to Him. Community Responsibility The distribution of cities to the Levites highlights the responsibility of the community to support those who minister. Believers are called to support their spiritual leaders through prayer, encouragement, and practical means. Living as a Royal Priesthood As Christians, we are called to live as a royal priesthood, serving God and others. This involves dedicating our lives to spiritual service and recognizing our role in God's kingdom. Parallel Commentaries ...
