Eze 47:15-20 | TNotes | STEP | Summary for Ezek 47:15-20: 47:15-20 The boundaries of the new Promised Land were approximately those assigned in Num 34:1-12 , from Lebo-hamath in the north to the Brook of Egypt in the south, and from the Mediterranean in the west to the Jordan River in the east. The people would now possess the entirety of this promised land, something they had never before done. Absent from this land was Transjordan, the area east of the Jordan River, which was the historic home of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh. It lay outside the boundaries promised to Moses and was therefore not part of the original promise, although historically many Israelites had lived there.
