Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient times, the concept of borders and adjoining territories was significant for defining the extent of a nation's influence and control. Borders were often marked by natural landmarks such as rivers or mountains, and they played a crucial role in the political and social interactions between neighboring peoples. Understanding the geographical context of biblical narratives can provide deeper insights into the relationships and conflicts described in the Scriptures.
