The Levites Land in the Messianic Era

The Torah mandates that the Levites not inherit a portion in the Land of Israel like the rest of the tribes, for they are to be set apart for the service of G-d and guiding the people spiritually. Will there be a change in the division of land in the times of Moshiach?

Levites and human after-death gifts. Thank you Rabbi Raskin. I enjoyed this lecture. It clarifies and resolves a question I had concerning your understanding about what the relative position of Levites to Jews of other tribes (as well as Levites who will be, for one or more reasons, disqualified from serving in their special capacity when the Moshiach comes. I would like very much to hear your teaching about the prohibition against Levites inheriting property (real estate and other types of property) from anyone except a father. If you have time to lecture on this topic, it would be of great interest to this student. Why would it not be proper (or would it be?) for a surviving Levite to take the father's remainder property that entirely passed through the mother after the mother's death? (Especially If the mother were a housewife or had a set income making it possible to distinguish and separate out the remainder of the property the father had left). A Levite would probably be poor,no? Thank you. Let us bless G-d. Reply
