In this verse, Moses is instructed by God to appoint leaders from each tribe to help in dividing the land of Canaan among the Israelites. These leaders were to assist in the distribution of the promised inheritance, ensuring fairness and order in the allocation process. This act of delegation highlights the importance of wise leadership and collaboration in fulfilling God's plans. It also demonstrates God's faithfulness in providing guidance and structure for His people as they enter the land He had promised them.
