What Does Joshua 18:11 Mean?
The first of the seven portions is drawn, and it falls to Benjamin. Their allotted territory lies between Judah to the south and the house of Joseph to the north, exactly within the frame set out earlier.
Benjamin, the youngest of Jacob's sons, is given a place between the two strongest houses. The smallest tribe is set in the very midst, not pushed to the margins. God's arrangement honors the least, granting it a portion in the heart of the land.
