### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: Sefer Yetzirah says God shared the letters among the seven planets and the twelve constellations, giving each a place in the world. In Joshua it also means that Moses shared out the land as inheritances to the tribes east of the Jordan. Interpretation: Sefer Yetzirah sees order in how God shares out the letters. In Joshua, tradition reads the sharing out of the land as fair and guided by God. In the primary lessons: maths: things shared out among people or groups, often equally (each gets total ÷ number); data spread across groups; science: seeds distributed by wind and animals; everyday life: food distributed to people in need, papers distributed to the class
