The List of Levitical Towns
Joshua 21 assigns towns and pasturelands to the Levites from the tribal inheritances. It closes with a major theological summary: the LORD gave Israel the land, gave them rest, and not one good promise failed.
First Chronicles later preserves a parallel list of priestly and Levitical settlements, showing the continuing importance of Joshua’s distribution of towns while also preserving textual and spelling variations.
