Verses 28-29

These priests would receive no other inheritance in the land but the privilege of serving the Lord in the special ways that He permitted. The Lord would designate a portion of the land in which they would live (Ezekiel 45:4; Ezekiel 48:10-11), but this was not their inheritance. The perquisites of this inheritance would include the privilege of eating parts of the best grains and animals that the people brought to the Lord as sacrifices (cf. Deuteronomy 25:4; 1 Corinthians 9:9-12; 1 Timothy 5:18). Everything that the people would bring as offerings to the Lord would go to them. These were "devoted" (Heb. herem) things, things given that the offerer could not redeem (buy back; cf. Leviticus 27:21; Leviticus 27:28; Numbers 18:14).
