'Smaller' in the Bible

Each inheritance will be divided by lot among the larger and smaller tribes.”

Of the cities that you give from the Israelites’ territory, you should take more from a larger tribe and less from a smaller one. Each tribe is to give some of its cities to the Levites in proportion to the inheritance it receives.”

You must not have two differing dry measures in your house, a larger and a smaller.

It’s like a mustard seed that, when sown in the soil, is smaller than all the seeds on the ground.
