The LORD is my portion (?)

Hey everyone, I was reading the Torah and noticed that the Levites were not promised a portion of land like the other tribes, but instead, God is described as their portion and inheritance. I was wondering how this has been traditionally understood—both in ancient times and in later Jewish thought. Does this refer primarily to their priestly role and service in the Temple, or does it have broader spiritual or communal implications? I’d love to hear any insights or sources on this! Thanks in advance.
