Genesis 13:10-17
Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well- watered everywhere, before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one other.Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against Yahweh.Yahweh said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him,“ Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”

This shall be your west border.“‘ This shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall mark out for yourselves Mount Hor.From Mount Hor you shall mark out to the entrance of Hamath; and the border shall pass by Zedad.Then the border shall go to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your north border.“‘ You shall mark out your east border from Hazar Enan to Shepham.The border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain. The border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward.The border shall go down to the Jordan, and end at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders around it.’”Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying,“ This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which Yahweh has commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half- tribe;for the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their fathers’ houses, the tribe of the children of Gad according to their fathers’ houses, and the half- tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.The two tribes and the half- tribe have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, toward the sunrise.”

Joshua 14:1-15
These are the inheritances which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers’ houses of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed to them,by the lot of their inheritance, as Yahweh commanded by Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half- tribe.For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half- tribe beyond the Jordan; but to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. They gave no portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for their livestock and for their property.The children of Israel did as Yahweh commanded Moses, and they divided the land.Then the children of Judah came near to Joshua in Gilgal. Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him,“ You know the thing that Yahweh spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and concerning you in Kadesh Barnea.I was forty years old when Moses the servant of Yahweh sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. I brought him word again as it was in my heart.Nevertheless, my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; but I wholly followed Yahweh my God.Moses swore on that day, saying,‘ Surely the land where you walked shall be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have wholly followed Yahweh my God.’“ Now, behold, Yahweh has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty- five years, from the time that Yahweh spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, behold, I am eighty- five years old, today.As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.Now therefore give me this hill country, of which Yahweh spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and great and fortified cities. It may be that Yahweh will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as Yahweh said.”Joshua blessed him; and he gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance.Therefore Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he followed Yahweh, the God of Israel wholeheartedly.Now the name of Hebron before was Kiriath Arba, after the greatest man among the Anakim. Then the land had rest from war.
