The household holds the house rights

According to the laws of yovel the initial distribution of land cannot be altered by the marketplace. It can only be altered as a reflection of the bequeathing of life to one's offspring. 
Here is where the blessings of land and children meet. Land rights are entailed to the members of the household. The household holds the house rights, as it were.
