Ezekiel 46:19
"Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance, to thrust them out of their possession. He shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession, that my people not each be scattered from his possession.”’”"
Key Reflection
This passage emphasizes the principle of stewardship and continuity within the community. The prince is forbidden from appropriating the inheritance of the common people to ensure that no one loses their land, thereby preventing social disintegration and maintaining a stable society where each family retains its property.
