It is frequently employed in the Hebrew Bible to describe the borders of the Promised Land as allocated to the tribes of Israel. The concept of boundaries is significant in the biblical narrative, symbolizing God's provision and the inheritance given to His people.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, land was a critical component of identity and sustenance. The division of land among the tribes was not only a practical matter but also a fulfillment of God's promises to the patriarchs. Boundaries were marked and respected, serving as a testament to God's faithfulness and the covenant relationship between God and Israel. The delineation of land also had legal and social implications, as it determined inheritance rights and tribal affiliations.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>fem. of <a href="/hebrew/1366.htm">gebul</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>border, boundary<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>area (1), borders (4), boundaries (3), landmarks (1), territories (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">גְּבוּלָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>border, boundary</b></font> — suffix <font class="hebrew2">גְּבֻלָתוֺ</font> <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/28-25.htm">Isaiah 28:25</a>; <em>Plural</em> absolute <font class="hebrew2">גְּבֻלֹת</font> <a href="/interlinear/numbers/32-33.htm">Numbers 32:33</a>, <font class="hebrew2">גְּבֻלוֺת</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/24-2.htm">Job 24:2</a>; construct <font class="hebrew2">גְּבוּלוֺת</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/74-17.htm">Psalm 74:17</a>, <font class="hebrew2">גְּבוּלֹת</font> <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/10-18.htm">Isaiah 10:18</a>, <font class="hebrew2">גְּבֻלֹת</font> <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/32-8.htm">Deuteronomy 32:8</a>; suffix <font class="hebrew2">גְּבוּלֹתֶיהָ</font> <a href="/interlinear/joshua/18-20.htm">Joshua 18:20</a>; <a href="/interlinear/joshua/19-49.htm">Joshua 19:49</a>, <font class="hebrew2">גְבֻלֹתֶיהָ</font> <a href="/interlinear/numbers/34-2.htm">Numbers 34:2,12</a>; — <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <em>border, boundary</em> of the earth (poetry) <a href="/interlinear/psalms/74-17.htm">Psalm 74:17</a>; of peoples <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/10-13.htm">Isaiah 10:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/32-8.htm">Deuteronomy 32:8</a> (poem); of land of Canaan <a href="/interlinear/numbers/34-2.htm">Numbers 34:2</a>,12 (P) <a href="/interlinear/joshua/19-49.htm">Joshua 19:49</a> (JE); of a tribe <a href="/interlinear/joshua/18-20.htm">Joshua 18:20</a> (P); of territory about cities <a href="/interlinear/numbers/32-33.htm">Numbers 32:33</a> (P?); of piece of ground <a href="/interlinear/job/24-2.htm">Job 24:2</a>; of barley-field <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/28-25.htm">Isaiah 28:25</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>border, bound, coast, landmark <p>Or (shortened) gbulah {gheb-oo-law'}; feminine of <a href="/hebrew/1366.htm">gbuwl</a>; a boundary, region -- border, bound, coast, landmark.
