Illness
An illness is a state of poor (or ill) health. It could also be called disease. If someone is not in a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being, one could be considered to be ill. Conditions of the body that cause pain, dysfunction or distress to a person can be deemed an illness. Medication is used to cure or reduce the symptoms of ill health.
An inheritance is something that is or may be inherited. For example property passing at the owner's death to an heir or someone entitled to succeed.
In Judaism, the father (the owner of the land) will leave his land only to his male children. Therefore the Promised Land (Israel) passes from one Jewish father to his sons. His sons are called Israelites, denoting their connection with the land of their father.
If a man has no sons, then his daughter(s) may inherit. If he has no children, then his brother(s) inherit and so on down the line. Note that if a daughter inherits land she must marry someone within her father's tribe.
