Ezekiel 47:13

Thus says the Lord GOD: “These are the borders by which you shall divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph shall have two portions.’ (Ezekiel 47:13)

It is good that God keeps His promises, even to the point of detail such that Joseph keeps two portions of the land (one each for his two sons). This was promised way back to the tribe of Joseph, and had been in effect until the captivity. God promises that after the captivity, in the future, when Israel is fully restored to the land, then Joseph will again have two portions, as promised.

God has made many more, and more wonderful, promises to us. It is good to know that He will keep them all in detail!
