THE ORIGINAL BORDERS OF ISRAEL
(Numbers 34 [KJV])
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Command the children of Israel,
and say unto them, When ye come into the land of Canaan; (this is the
land that shall fall unto you for an inheritance, even the land of
Canaan with the coasts thereof:) Then your south quarter shall be from
the wilderness of Zin along by the coast of Edom, and your south border
shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward: And your border
shall turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin:
and the going forth thereof shall be from the south to Kadeshbarnea,
and shall go on to Hazaraddar, and pass on to Azmon: And the border
shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings
out of it shall be at the sea. And as for the western border, ye shall
even have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.
And this shall be your north border: from the great sea ye shall point
out for you mount Hor: From mount Hor ye shall point out your border
unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings forth of the border shall be
to Zedad: And the border shall go on to Ziphron, and the goings out of
it shall be at Hazarenan: this shall be your north border.
And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to Shepham:
And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of
Ain; and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the
sea of Chinnereth eastward:
And the border shall go down to Jordan, and the
goings out of it shall be at the salt sea: this shall be your land with
the coasts thereof round about.
And
Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This is the land which
ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD commanded to give unto the nine
tribes, and to the half tribe:
For
the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their
fathers, and the tribe of the children of Gad according to the house of
their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of
Manasseh have received their inheritance:
The
two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this
side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising. And the LORD
spake unto Moses, saying,
*********
These
are the names of the men which shall divide the land unto you: Eleazar
the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun. And ye shall take one prince of
every tribe, to divide the land by inheritance. And the names of the men
are these: Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. And of
the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad the son of Chislon. And the prince of
the tribe of the children of Dan, Bukki the son of Jogli.
The prince of the children of Joseph, for the tribe of the children of Manasseh, Hanniel the son of Ephod.
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Ephraim, Kemuel the son of Shiphtan.
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Zebulun, Elizaphan the son of Parnach.
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Issachar, Paltiel the son of Azzan.
And the prince of the tribe of the children of Asher, Ahihud the son of Shelomi.
