Footnotes
The detail that the survey was written *al-sefer* (עַל-סֵפֶר, 'on a scroll') is significant — committing the land to text before distributing it to tribes. This act of documentation reflects the covenantal seriousness of the allocation: the promise is being mapped, measured, and recorded. The land does not merely exist; it is named, known, and written down. FOG and FOG Message both use 'scroll' to preserve the physical object.
