Deuteronomy 9:27

Context
9:27 Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; ignore the stubbornness, wickedness, and sin of these people.

Deuteronomy 32:9

Context

32:9 For the Lord’s allotment is his people,

Jacob is his special possession. 1 

Deuteronomy 33:4

Context

33:4 Moses delivered to us a law, 2 

an inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.

1 tc Heb “the portion of his inheritance.” The LXX and Smr add “Israel” and BHS suggests the reconstruction: “The Lord’s allotment is Jacob, the portion of his inheritance is Israel” (cf. NAB). While providing good parallelism, it destroys a fine chiastic structure: “allotment” (a), “his people” (b), “Jacob (b’), and “inheritance” (a’).

2 tn The Hebrew term תּוֹרָה (torah) here should be understood more broadly as instruction.
