Numbers 34 – Many consider this the fulfillment of the promise to Abraham. 2023

Num 34:2
"Command the sons of Israel and say to them, 'When you enter the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders.

Many consider this the fulfillment of the promise Elohim's promise to Abraham. While this was the beginning of the fulfillment, it was not the consummation. Israel never took the entirety of the land promised to Abraham's descendants. Regardless, we are told that we are Abraham's descendants through faithfulness and heirs according to the promise (Gal. 3:28-29). We are told in Ezekiel that we will receive an inheritance in the land of Israel with these described boundaries being almost identical (Ezek. 47:13-14, 21-23).
