The boundaries within Canaan

Num 34:1–15

34Then Yahweh told Mosheh (Moses), 2“Tell the people that you’re all about to enter Canaan—the land that will become your inheritance. The boundaries will be:

3“The southern border will extend from the Tsin wilderness along the Edom border across to the Salt (Dead) Sea on the east, 4cross south of the Scorpion Pass, continue to Tsin, and go south of Kadesh-Barnea. Then it will go on to Hatsar-Addar and proceed to Atsmon, 5From Atsmon it will extend west to the riverbed at the border with Egypt, and then across to the Mediterranean Sea.

6“The western border will be the Mediterranean sea.

7“The northern border will start at the Mediterranean sea and extend west to Mt. Hor, 8and then on to Levo-Hamat and onward to Tsedad. 9From there the border will extend to Zifron, and it will end at Hatsar-Eynan, completing the northern border.

10“The eastern border will begin at Hatsar-Eynan and extend south to Shefam, 11then go downhill to Rivlah east of Ayin, then along the hills to the east of Lake Galilee (Heb. Kinneret). 12Then the border will extend south along the Yarden River and end at the Salt (Dead) Sea.

“Those will be your country’s borders.”

13Then Mosheh continued, “That will be the land that must be distributed by lot. It’ll be given by Yahweh as an inheritance for the nine tribes and the Menashsheh half-tribe[ref] 14as the Reuven and Gad tribes and the Menashsheh half-tribe have already received their inheritance. 15Yes, the other two and a half tribes have taken up their inheritance on the eastern side of the Yarden river across from Yeriho (Jericho).

Num 26:52-56:

52Then Yahweh told Mosheh,[ref] 53“The land should be allocated to those clans according to the number of their names, to become their inheritance. 54Those with larger numbers should receive more, and the smaller groups receive less, i.e., each inheritance depends on the number of family members. 55You must throw lots to determine which clan gets which piece of land. The lands of the clans must be within their tribal lands. 56Then the size of the area that will become their inheritance must be apportioned according to the census numbers.
