  2. The land given to Abraham was between the river Egypt and the Euphrates River.
  3. The land was inherited by Abraham's descendants ISRAEL and all of it was possessed.
  4. The agreement (covenant) required that the heirs be faithful to God else they would perish off the land.

  7. The first judge was Othniel the son of faithful Caleb.
  8. God did not immediately remove the nation Israel off the land because He is longsuffering.
