At verse 14, as well as here, notice is taken, that to the
tribe of Levi, "Moses gave no inheritance," for so God had
appointed. Nu 18:20. If they had been appointed to a lot
entire by themselves, Moses would have served them first, not
because it was his own tribe, but because it was God's, but
they must be provided for in another manner; their habitation
must be scattered in all the tribes, and their maintenance
brought out of all the tribes, and God himself was the portion
both of their inheritance and of their cup.
18:7 De 10:9 18:1,2
