3 Your southernmost corner shall be from the desert of Zin along Edom, and the southern border shall be from the edge of the Sea of Salt [the Dead Sea] to the east.
4 The border then turns south of Maaleh Akrabim [elevation of Akrabim], passing toward Zin, and its ends shall be to the south of Kadesh barnea. Then it shall extend to Hazar addar and continue toward Azmon.
5 The border then turns from Azmon to the stream of Egypt, and its ends shall be to the sea.
6 The western border: it shall be for you the Great [Mediterranean] Sea and the border this shall be your western border.
7 This shall be your northern border: From the Great [Mediterranean] Sea turn yourselves toward Mount Hor.
8 From Mount Hor turn to the entrance of Hamath, and the ends of the border shall be toward Zedad.
9 The border shall then extend to Ziphron, and its ends shall be Hazar enan; this shall be your northern border.
10 You shall then turn yourselves toward the eastern border, from Hazar enan to Shepham.
11 The border descends from Shepham toward Riblah, to the east of Ain. Then the border descends and hits the eastern shore of Lake Kinnereth.
12 The border then continues down along the Jordan, and its ends is the Sea of Salt [the Dead Sea]; this shall be your Land according to its borders around.

15 The two and a half tribes have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan, near Jericho in the east, toward the sunrise.”
16 The Lord spoke to Moses saying:
17 These are the names of the men who shall inherit the land on your behalf: Eleazar the kohen and Joshua the son of Nun.
18 You shall take one chieftain from each tribe to [help you to] acquire the land.
19 These are the names of the men: for the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
20 For the tribe of the descendants of Simeon, Samuel the son of Ammihud.

TORAH
(Law)
The book of Deuteronomy, also known as Devarim in Hebrew (“Words”), is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It contains a series of speeches by Moses to the Israelites, just before they are about to enter the promised land, which summarize and expand upon many of the laws and commandments given in the earlier books of the Torah. The word Deuteronomy literally means “second law,” indicating that Moses is rehearsing the law with the Israelites before they enter the land.
The book is often seen as a sort of farewell address by Moses, containing some of his final instructions and blessings to the people he has led for many years. It emphasizes the importance of following G-d’s commandments and remaining faithful to Him, while warning against the dangers of disobedience and idolatry. Overall, Deuteronomy serves as a significant text in the history of Judaism and Christianity, containing many of the foundational beliefs and values of these religions.
