Denn die Leviten haben kein Teil in eurer Mitte, denn das Priestertum Jehovas ist ihr Erbteil. Und Gad und Ruben und der halbe Stamm Manasse haben jenseit des Jordan, gegen Osten, ihr Erbteil empfangen, welches Mose, der Knecht Jehovas, ihnen gegeben hat.
Denn die Leviten haben kein Teil unter euch, sondern das Priestertum des HERRN ist ihr Erbteil. Gad aber und Ruben und der halbe Stamm Manasse haben ihr Teil genommen jenseit des Jordans, gegen Morgen, das ihnen Mose, der Knecht Gottes, gegeben hat.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the Levites have no part among you,.... And so needed not to send any men out of their tribe to measure the land on their account, and is a reason why the remaining part of the land was to be divided into seven parts only:
for the priesthood of the Lord [is] his inheritance; not only the office, but what appertained to it, all the perquisites of it, the tithes, firstfruits, parts of the sacrifices, c. see Joshua 13:14
and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh, have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them; and so had no share in the division of the land of Canaan, being sufficiently provided for.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 18:7. The priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance — We have already seen that the priests and Levites had the sacrifices, oblations tithes, first-fruits, redemption-money of the firstborn, c., for their inheritance they had no landed possessions in Israel; the LORD was their portion.
