Bible Question: How can a Jewish, a Levite, (one of the twelve Israelite tribes) Barnabas can sell or possessed land

Bible Answer: HI jbjona

Barnabas was a Levite, he did sell land, but there is no mention as to where that land could have been.

As Moses relayed to the people what God said, he told them.(the Levites) Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.

We can see from this, they were not to be able to own land within the borders of Israel.
To paraphrase what Paul Harvey would say, go read the whole interesting story of Levi, and Simeon, to find out how they came to there individual positions concerning land within Israel.
