Study note
Setting — The LORD addresses Moses from the summit of Mount Nebo, actively displaying the promised territory before Moses' death.
The words — כָּל (kol) translates literally to "all," and אֶרֶץ ('ereṣ) means "land," together marking the complete geographic scope of the visual tour.
The thread — This boundary enumeration aligns with the territorial descriptions in Deuteronomy 11:24, Exodus 23:31, and Numbers 34:6.
Why it lands — The text explicitly lists the northern, central, and western limits of the inheritance, requiring the reader to record the precise geographic framework of the promise before any application.
