This region was located in the northern part of Israel, known for its fertile land and strategic location. It played a significant role in Israel's history, often being a site of conflict due to its proximity to foreign nations. The mention of Naphtali here highlights the comprehensive view Moses had from Mount Nebo, symbolizing the fulfillment of God's promise to give the land to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.<p><b>the land of Ephraim and Manasseh</b><br>Ephraim and Manasseh were the two sons of Joseph, and their tribes were among the most prominent in Israel. The land of Ephraim was centrally located, while Manasseh's territory was divided on both sides of the Jordan River. This area was significant for its agricultural productivity and its central role in the history of Israel, including being the location of Shiloh, where the Tabernacle was set up. The mention of these lands underscores the inheritance given to Joseph's descendants, fulfilling Jacob's blessing in <a href="/genesis/48-5.htm">Genesis 48:5-6</a>.<p><b>all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea</b><br>Judah was the largest and most influential tribe, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended. The land of Judah included Jerusalem, the spiritual and political center of Israel. The "Western Sea" refers to the Mediterranean Sea, marking the western boundary of the Promised Land. This phrase emphasizes the vastness of the land promised to the Israelites, extending from the central highlands to the western coast, and foreshadows the establishment of the Davidic kingdom, which is a type of Christ's eternal reign.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/n/naphtali.htm">Naphtali</a></b><br>One of the tribes of Israel, descended from Naphtali, the sixth son of Jacob and Bilhah.
