These [are] the inheritances, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, divided for an inheritance by lot in Shiloh before the LORD, at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. So they made an end of dividing the country.

Commentary on Joshua 19:51

Theological / Devotional

Door of the tabernacle. The work of division was done in the presence of God and by His direction. It was done publicly, so that all might know that the distribution was not the result of the caprice of men. Such a knowledge would have its influence in curbing any murmuring, but in spite of this there was some discontent (ch. 17:14-18).

The lesson is also for us. Every important problem of life should be brought to the “door of the tabernacle” in recognition of God’s authority in every phase of life.
