"Thou son of man, these that dwell in the wasted land of Israel say, 'Abraham was but one man, and he had the land in possession: now are we many, and the land is given us to possess also.'

Ye lean upon your swords, ye work abominations, every one defileth his neighbour's wife: and shall ye then possess the land?'

"Moreover, thus sayeth the LORD God: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, then shall it be his sons' heritage perpetual, that he may possess it.
