Joshua 19 - 21

The tribes of Simeon, Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali and Dan receive their land inheritances.    Dan actually increased their land by conquering the city-state of Leshem.  Finally, Joshua received a special portion of land as his inheritance:  the city of Timnath-Serah.  The cities of refuge were appointed throughout the land, as were the cities in which the Levites would dwell.  At the end of the process it was clearly seen that God had kept His promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - the land was theirs and their enemies were kept at bay.  All that God had promised had come to pass!
