When ye shall divide by lot the land— The land was first divided by lot under Joshua, a particular share of which was to be God's portion, as an acknowledgement of his sovereign dominion. See Lowth, Numbers 26:55 and the note on chap. Ezekiel 48:35 of this book. Instead of offer an oblation, Houbigant reads, set off a part; and so throughout the chapter; and cubits instead of reeds.

1 Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.
