And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.
Y él ha echado suertes para decidir sus porciones, y su mano ha medido su territorio con cordel de medir. Lo poseerán para siempre, de generación en generación, vivirán allí.
Dios ha asignado territorios específicos que serán poseídos permanentemente de generación en generación.
📚 Contexto Histórico
During the time of the prophet Isaiah in the 8th century BC, Israel faced threats from neighboring nations like Edom, and Isaiah's prophecies warned of God's judgment on those who opposed His people. This verse uses the imagery of casting lots and dividing land, as was common in ancient Near Eastern practices for allotting territory, to depict God's sovereign act of turning Edom into a permanent wasteland as punishment for their wickedness. It fits into the broader biblical narrative of God's control over history and nations, echoing themes from earlier events like the division of the Promised Land.
