Provision for God's Ministers
Commentators agree that this verse demonstrates a core principle: God ensures that those who serve Him and His people are provided for. A large, specific portion of the holy land was designated for the Levites, the "ministers of the house," for their possession and dwelling. This serves as a blueprint for the church's responsibility to support its ministers.
