History

Historical background

Refuge and Levitical cities

Israel appoints six cities of refuge and then assigns forty-eight cities with pasturelands to the Levites. The Levitical towns are distributed among the tribes according to clan, completing the settlement of the priestly tribe.

Setting
The tribal territories after the main land allotments.

Main events
The refuge cities are named, the Levites receive towns from every tribe, and the clan allocations are listed.

Why it matters
The arrangements place justice and worship throughout the land rather than limiting them to one region.

This overview paraphrases the cited passage in the World English Bible.
