Num. 34:1–15 God promised Abraham that his descendants would be given “all the land of Canaan” (Gen. 17:8). Here the Lord describes the borders of the Promised Land. The boundary is not always clear. In general terms, Canaan consisted of the land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River plus modern Lebanon and a portion of modern Syria.
Num. 34:1–6 The southern border of the Promised Land runs from the southern end of the Dead Sea (the Salt Sea), south of Kadesh-barnea, to the Mediterranean coast, west of Gaza (the Brook of Egypt). The western border of the Promised Land is the Mediterranean (the Great Sea).
Num. 34:7–9 The northern border of the Promised Land runs from the Mediterranean, north of Byblos, to Hazar-enan, which was perhaps an oasis on the edge of the desert east of Zedad.
Num. 34:10–15 The eastern border of the Promised Land is the hardest to define. From Hazar-enan it apparently runs southward along the edge of the desert before swinging westward to the Sea of Galilee (Sea of Chinnereth). From there it runs south along the Jordan River to the Dead Sea.
Num. 34:16–29 The men who divide the land are the chiefs of the 10 tribes who will settle west of the Jordan. No chiefs of Reuben and Gad are listed because they are settling east of the Jordan.
