Depending which translations and scholars you consult, casting of lots is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible between 40 and 50 times. A few of those references are Joshua 7:14, where a guilty party is determined by lot, Proverbs 18:18, which says that lots settle disputes, and Jonah 1:7, where lots are cast to determine which of the gods is responsible for the storm.
