'Lands' in the Bible
Solomon acquired horses from Egypt and from all the lands.
In those days no one could travel safely, for total chaos had overtaken all the people of the surrounding lands.
Now the Ammonites, Moabites, and men from Mount Seir are coming! When Israel came from the land of Egypt, you did not allow them to invade these lands. They bypassed them and did not destroy them.
All the kingdoms of the surrounding lands were afraid of God when they heard how the Lord had fought against Israel's enemies.
Are you not aware of what I and my predecessors have done to all the nations of the surrounding lands? Have the gods of the surrounding lands actually been able to rescue their lands from my power?
