In Genesis 1:26-28, man is given dominion over the earth, and all that is upon it. In law, dominion means absolute ownership or sovereignty. Since there can be no collective absolute ownership, the only valid conclusion is that individual men are endowed with the birthright to absolutely own themselves, the fruits of their labor, and that which they harmlessly acquire, including land.

Proverbs 22:28, ''Remove not the ancient landmark'', refers to the equivalent of a survey marker setting the boundaries of a plot of land, and is a warning against theft.
