“On the east side,
The boundary
Shall run
Between Hauran
And Damascus.
It shall run
Along the Jordan
Between Gilead
And the land of Israel,
To the eastern sea,
As far as Tamar.
This shall be the east side.”
There was no mention of the Sea of Galilee as in Numbers, chapter 34. Here the border started in the north by Hauran. Then it kind of followed the Jordan River down to the Dead Sea or the eastern sea. There was also a mention of Gilead, on the east side of the Jordan River. It goes as far south as Tamar, but it is not clear where this was.
