Every job has certain points where we can say that something is finished. The last verse of this chapter tells us that after all the decades since being freed from Egypt, the Israelites finished dividing the promised land among the twelve tribes. It was a truly great event. The fact that there was more work to do does not take away from this accomplishment. We will never be done—even when we die, we will have unfinished projects—but every thing that we finish leads to a successful “end”—the eternal salvation of the soul (1 Peter 1:9).
