Only he didn't buy the land of the Kohanim, for the Kohanim had a portion from Par`oh, and ate their portion which Par`oh gave them. That is why they didn't sell their land.
Par`oh called Yosef's name Zaphenath-Paneah; and he gave him Asenat, the daughter of Potiphera Kohen of On as a wife. Yosef went out over the land of Egypt.
Yosef made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Par`oh should have the fifth. Only the land of the Kohanim alone didn't become Par`oh's.
Also we inform you, that touching any of the Kohanim and Levites, the singers, porters, temple servants 1, or servants of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, custom, or toll, on them.
I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them; so that the Levites and the singers, who did the work, were fled everyone to his field.
Don't you know that those who serve around sacred things eat from the things of the temple, and those who wait on the altar have their portion with the altar?
