This theme is prevalent throughout both the Old and New Testaments, reflecting God's sovereign will and purpose for individuals and nations. Old Testament 1. Tribal Inheritances: One of the most prominent examples of assignment in the Old Testament is the allocation of the Promised Land among the tribes of Israel. In the Book of Joshua, God commands the division of the land, assigning specific territories to each tribe. <a href="/joshua/13-7.htm">Joshua 13:7</a> states, "Now therefore divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh." This assignment was not arbitrary but was based on divine instruction, reflecting God's covenant promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 2. Priestly Duties: The Levites were assigned specific roles related to the tabernacle and later the temple. <a href="/numbers/18-6.htm">Numbers 18:6-7</a> says, "I Myself have chosen your brothers the Levites from among the Israelites as a gift to you, dedicated to the LORD, to perform the service for the Tent of Meeting." This assignment underscores the importance of order and holiness in worship, as well as the special role of the Levites in mediating between God and the people. 3. Prophetic Missions: Prophets in the Old Testament were often assigned specific missions by God. For example, Jonah was assigned to go to Nineveh and proclaim God's message of repentance (<a href="/jonah/1-2.htm">Jonah 1:2</a>). Despite his initial reluctance, Jonah's assignment was part of God's broader plan for the city of Nineveh. New Testament 1. Apostolic Commission: In the New Testament, Jesus assigns the apostles the task of spreading the Gospel. In <a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19-20</a>, known as the Great Commission, Jesus instructs, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you." This assignment is foundational to the mission of the Church and reflects the universal scope of the Gospel. 2. Spiritual Gifts: The Apostle Paul speaks of spiritual gifts as being assigned by the Holy Spirit for the edification of the Church. In <a href="/1_corinthians/12-11.htm">1 Corinthians 12:11</a>, Paul writes, "All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as He wills." This assignment of gifts emphasizes the diversity and unity within the body of Christ, with each member playing a vital role. 3. Roles within the Church: Paul also addresses the assignment of roles within the Church, such as pastors, teachers, and elders. In <a href="/ephesians/4-11.htm">Ephesians 4:11-12</a>, he states, "And He gave some as apostles, some as prophets, some as evangelists, some as pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for works of ministry, to build up the body of Christ." These assignments are intended to promote spiritual growth and maturity among believers. Theological Implications The concept of being assigned by God carries significant theological implications. It underscores God's sovereignty and His active involvement in the world. Assignments from God are not merely tasks but are integral to His divine plan and purpose. They require obedience and faithfulness from those who are called, as well as trust in God's wisdom and timing. The biblical narrative consistently reveals that God's assignments, whether for individuals or communities, are ultimately for His glory and the fulfillment of His redemptive purposes.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Assign.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/3551.htm">3551. nomos -- that which is assigned, hence usage, law</a> ... that which is assigned, hence usage, law.
