What Does 1 Chronicles 6:76 Mean?
From the tribe of Naphtali the Gershomites were given Kedesh in Galilee -- another city of refuge -- along with Hammon and Kirjathaim, each with its open lands. Their dwelling places reached into the far north of Israel.
Galilee, here receiving God's ministers, would centuries later resound with the teaching of Jesus Himself. The seeds of worship planted in these northern towns prepared the soil for greater things. God works far ahead of His people's sight, settling His servants where His Son would one day walk.
