Subject: how can Barnabas sell or possess land

Bible Note: John, I like Gills answer. It's informed and provides good examples. But to add the phrase," but now the ceremonial law was abolished" seems unnecessary given his answer.

Of course you know my thoughts on the so called abolishment of the ceremonial law...so that aside, why feel the need to add it to this answer? Of course you are not Gill, so I am just curious as to why you think Gill included it.

He basically says, according to the whole law, a Levite could have owned and sold land. That answer is enough.
