This is the account of the inheritance of the tribe of Judah. Is it any coincidence that Jerusalem, the City of God, is found in the portion for this tribe? I think not!
Also found within this chapter is the story of Caleb's daughter's request for water. (Pastor Dad has a sermon he preaches called "A Desert Dowry" taken from this passage.)
Does God issue any commands?
- God does not speak in this chapter.
Does God make any promises?
- God does not speak in this chapter.
Does this chapter teach anything about Jesus?
- This is the land allotment of the tribe of Judah which is the ancestral tribe of Jesus.
- Achsah, the daughter of Caleb, intercedes on the behalf of her husband, Othniel, to ask her father for the necessities of life. She is a type of Christ, the One who intercedes to His Father for our necessities.
Does this chapter teach anything about yet-future events?
- None that I identified.
