From Dan to Beersheba

From Dan to Beersheba is a biblical phrase used nine times in the Hebrew Bible to refer to the settled areas of the Tribes of Israel between Dan in the North and Beersheba in the South. The term contributed to the position that was used by British politicians during negotiation of the British Mandate for Palestine following World War I.

It is found in the biblical verses:

1. Judges 20:1 during the Battle of Gibeah at the end of the Book of Judges

2. 1 Samuel 3:20 during the "Calling of Samuel"

3. 2 Samuel 3:10 during the war between Ish-bosheth and his brother-in-law David following the death of Saul
