'North' in the Bible

After Lot had departed, the Lord said to Abram, "Look from the place where you stand to the north, south, east, and west.

Then, during the night, Abram divided his forces against them and defeated them. He chased them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.

Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west, east, north, and south. All the families of the earth will pronounce blessings on one another using your name and that of your descendants.
