Genesis 13:10-17
Lot raised his eyes and saw all the vicinity of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere— this was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah— like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt going toward Zoar.So Lot chose for himself all the vicinity of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward. So they separated from each other.Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the vicinity of the Jordan, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked sinners against the Lord.The Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him,“ Now raise your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward, and eastward and westward;for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your descendants forever.I will make your descendants as plentiful as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can count the dust of the earth, then your descendants could also be counted.Arise, walk about in the land through its length and width; for I will give it to you.”

“ 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, that is, the land of Canaan according to its borders.Your southern region shall extend from the wilderness of Zin along the side of Edom, and your southern border shall extend from the end of the Salt Sea eastward.Then your border shall change direction from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and continue to Zin, and its termination shall be to the south of Kadesh barnea; and it shall reach Hazaraddar and continue to Azmon.Then the border shall change direction from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and its termination shall be at the sea.‘ As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea, that is, its coastline; this shall be your western border.‘ And this shall be your northern border: you shall draw your boundary from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.You shall draw a boundary from Mount Hor to the Lebo hamath, and the termination of the border shall be at Zedad;and the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and its termination shall be at Hazar enan. This shall be your northern border.‘ For your eastern border you shall also draw a boundary from Hazar enan to Shepham,and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down and reach to the slope on the east side of the Sea of Chinnereth.And the border shall go down to the Jordan, and its termination shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders on all sides.’ ”So Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying,“ This is the land that you are to possess by lot, which the Lord has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes.For the tribe of the sons of Reuben have received theirs according to their fathers’ households, and the tribe of the sons of Gad according to their fathers’ households, and the half tribe of Manasseh have received their possession.The two and a half tribes have received their possession across the Jordan opposite Jericho, eastward toward the sunrise.”

Joshua 14:1-15
Now these are the territories which the sons of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the tribes of the sons of Israel apportioned to them as inheritances,by the lot of their inheritance, just as the Lord commanded through Moses, for the nine tribes and the half tribe.For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half tribe beyond the Jordan; but he did not give an inheritance to the Levites among them.For the sons of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim, and they did not give a portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to live in, with their pasture lands for their livestock and for their property.The sons of Israel did exactly as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they divided the land.Then the sons of Judah approached Joshua in Gilgal, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him,“ You know the word which the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God on account of you and me in Kadesh barnea.I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh barnea to spy out the land, and I brought word back to him as it was in my heart.Nevertheless my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt with fear; but I followed the Lord my God fully.So Moses swore on that day, saying,‘ The land on which your foot has walked shall certainly be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have followed the Lord my God fully.’And now behold, the Lord has let me live, just as He spoke, these forty five years, from the time that the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel walked in the wilderness; and now behold, I am eighty five years old today.I am still as strong today as I was on the day Moses sent me; as my strength was then, so my strength is now, for war and for going out and coming in.Now then, give me this hill country about which the Lord spoke on that day, for you heard on that day that Anakim were there, with great fortified cities; perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I will drive them out just as the Lord has spoken.”So Joshua blessed him and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance.Therefore, Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he followed the Lord God of Israel fully.Now the name of Hebron was previously Kiriath arba; for Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim. Then the land was at rest from war.
