This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Sin-offering being mentioned immediately before, gives the occasion of repeating the provision made for the priests, for under this one all other offerings are couched; and if the Lord do so expressly require a defiled priest to bring his sin-offering, in which the ministering priests had their share, he would expect the same of all Israel, which would amount to a great sum.
For an inheritance, instead of lands and cities.
I am their inheritance; God is the inheritance of all his people, but especially of his priests; and so what is given to God, by him is assigned to his officers.
Ye shall give them no possession, as the rest of the tribes had.
I am their possession; the peculiar blessing of God on them, and their share in his offerings, was a very rich possession.
