53. Unto these the land shall be divided for an inheritance according to the number of names. 54. To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance: to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that were numbered of him. 55. Notwithstanding the land shall be divided by lot: according to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.
Numbers 26:53-55 — KJV
Unto these. That is, the numbered families of the preceding verses. The Levites were not included.
An inheritance. The land of Canaan was to be apportioned to these families and never alienated from them. The extent of the territory received depended upon the number of persons in each tribe, and each inheritance would bear the name of the tribal ancestor.
