In Joshua 20–21, God’s justice and care are evident. Joshua 20 introduces "cities of refuge" for those accused of accidental killings, providing protection from vengeance and showcasing God’s wisdom in balancing justice and mercy. Chapter 21 focuses on assigning 48 cities to the Levites, the priestly tribe without a land inheritance, ensuring equitable land distribution among Israel. These chapters reveal God’s fairness in dividing land, preserving order, and providing for those who serve Him faithfully. The themes of justice, mercy, and provision highlight how God’s wisdom brings structure to spiritual and civil life.
