Scripture Union Daily Guide 10th March 2022 Devotional | Outline
God presents Himself here as a faithful promise keeper. The portions of land and their boundaries referred to here are similar to those originally promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (see Genesis 13:15, 15:18, 26:3 and 28:13) and given to Moses (Numbers 34:1‐15). Note how God gave specific landmarks to the north, east, south, and west. This is sometimes referred to as the borders of Israel in the period of Ezekiel’s temple, a period regarded as the millennial reign of Jesus the Messiah.
We also see that once the land has been allocated by God, He also shows His concern to those who may be strangers dwelling amongst Israel, those from other lands and ethnic groups. They are neither to be excluded in the blessing of the land nor discriminated against. Instead, they are to be given the same privileges ‘as native‐born among the children of Israel’ (v.22). This contrasts sharply with how foreigners are treated in many countries. They are often victims of racist attacks and other abuses.
People of God who look forward to God’s Kingdom where God does not discriminate should help our policy makers become more considerate and humane towards those who may be foreigners in our nations.
• Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
