1 The clans of the Judah tribe were given land that went south along the border of Edom, and at its furthest point south it even reached the Zin Desert.
2 Judah's southern border started at the south end of the Dead Sea.
3 As it went west from there, it ran south of Scorpion Pass to Zin, and then came up from the south to Kadesh-Barnea. It continued past Hezron up to Addar, turned towards Karka,
4 and ran along to Azmon. After that, it followed the Egyptian Gorge and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This was also Israel's southern border.
