במדבר, פרק ל״ד, פסוק ט׳

The mapping of Israel's northern border reaches its conclusion, taking in a vast expanse of land. While the exact sites are difficult to identify today, this region lies near the northern edge of modern-day Syria. The borders of the Promised Land stretch far north, reaching wide enough to include cities like Aleppo [ביאור שטיינזלץ].

The boundary line then moves toward a location known as Ziphron. According to ancient translations, this spot is identified with Keren-happuch, a name found in the Book of Job, and the name Ziphron itself is drawn from the distinct color of the saffron spice [העמק דבר].

From there, the border arrives at its final northern stop at Hazar Enan. This location serves as the absolute edge of the northern boundary, sitting exactly at the northeastern corner of the land. Once it reaches Hazar Enan, the northern route is complete, and the border begins to turn south to form the eastern edge of the land [רש״י].
