The eventual territorial area of Israel, in our day,
will comprise the areas occupied by the 10 nations mentioned in
Genesis 15:19-21: ...the Kenites,
Kenizzites, Kadmonites, Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites, Amorites, Canaanites,
Girgashites and Jebusites.
TRIBAL BOUNDARIES
Ezekiel 47:13 "These are the boundaries
by which you are to divide the land for an inheritance among the twelve tribes
of Israel, with two portions for Joseph. 14 You are to divide it equally
among them. Because I swore with uplifted hand to give it to your forefathers,
this land will become your inheritance. 15 "This is to be the boundary of
the land: "On the north side it will run from the Great Sea by the Hethlon
road past Lebo Hamath to Zedad, 16 Berothah and Sibraim (which lies on the
border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer Hatticon, which is on
the border of Hauran. 17 The boundary will extend from the sea to Hazar Enan,
along the northern border of Damascus, with the border of Hamath to the north.
This will be the north boundary.
18 "On the east side the boundary will run between Hauran and Damascus, along
the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, to the eastern sea and
as far as Tamar. This will be the east boundary.
19 "On the south side it will run from Tamar as far as the waters of Meribah
Kadesh, then along the Wadi of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the south
boundary.
20 "On the west side, the Great Sea will be the boundary to a point opposite
Lebo Hamath. This will be the west boundary.
