Where did Levi from the bible live?

Answer 1

He was born in a village of Buttenheim, Germany. Later in 1847 he, his 3 other sisters and his mother moved to America-New York City after following his two brothers, Jacob and Lippman (Louis).

Answer 2

He lived with his father, Jacob, in the land of Canaan, and later with his brothers in Egypt.

Answer:

Following Israel's liberation from Egypt... Levi's children [the Levites, of whom Aaron and his sons became the high priests] didn't receive or "inherit" tracts of land in Canaan, the Promised Land, with the rest of the tribes.

God set the Levites apart from the rest of the nation [sanctified them] for the purpose of administering His Commandments, laws and ordinances among the people, and for the execution of the duties required for the function of the Temple [at that time, the series of tents; sometimes called the Tabernacle].

"The LORD said to Aaron, 'You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any share among them; I AM your share and your inheritance among the Israelites. I give to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as their inheritance in return for the work they do while serving at the Tent of Meeting [KJV: Tabernacle of the Congregation; the moble tent complex, Tabernacle/Temple, God had them construct for their worship there in the wilderness].'" (Num.18:20-21 NIV)

"It is the Levites who are to do the work at the Tent of Meeting and bear the responsibility for offenses against it. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. They will receive no inheritance among the Israelites. Instead, I give to the Levites as their inheritance the tithes that the Israelites present as an offering to the LORD. That is why I said concerning them: 'They will have no inheritance among the Israelites.'" (verses 23-24)

The tribe of Levi is not represented on any historical maps depicting the tracts of land the Israelites had divided up among themselves in Canaan, the Promised Land, after they finally crossed the Jordan River.

Instead, they were scattered throughout Canaan among their brother-tribes, living in homes given to them by the individual tribes, ministering to each tribe where they were needed in real time in day-to-day living -- besides the actual "work" of serving in the numerous duties of the "Temple" [the Tent of Meeting] where God's annual commanded assemblies took place.
