SCRIPTURE

"Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance;" — 1 Chronicles 16:18 (ASV)

The land of Canaan. —In the Hebrew, the rhythm is marred here by the omission of a particle (eth), found in Psalms 105:11.

The lot. —Literally, as the measuring line , i.e., as your measured or apportioned domain.
