  2. Explication du texte

Why is the northern boundary described in so much more detail than the others?

Josué 15:5–11 (NEG79)

5 La limite orientale était la mer Salée jusqu'à l'embouchure du Jourdain. La limite septentrionale partait de la langue de mer qui est à l'embouchure du Jourdain.

The northern boundary is described in the most detail because it was shared with the tribes of Dan and Benjamin. The three different tribes needed to know exactly which land belonged to whom.1
