     * the border from.
       The Holy Land, as here described, extended from about 31
       degrees to 35; degrees N. lat. and from 34; degrees to 37
       degrees E. long.; being bounded on the north by a line drawn
       from the Mediterranean to Hamath; on the east by Damascus,
       Hauran, Gilead, and the land of Israel east of Jordan, unto
       the south of the Dead sea; on the south by Tamar and Kadesh,
       unto the river of Rhinocorura; and on the west by the
       Mediterranean sea, from the same point northward "till a man
       came over against Hamath;" and its length from north to south
       would be about 280; miles, and its breadth about 150; miles.
       The ten tribes, as well as Judah and Benjamin, were to be
       admitted to a full share in this inheritance, which seems to
       imply, that the future restoration to the promised land is
       predicted; while the admission of strangers who sojourned in
       the land to a share in the inheritance, as if native
       Israelites, plainly intimates the calling of the Gentiles into
       the church, and their joint inheritance of its privileges, and
       of the heavenly felicity.
