As a geographical name, the word Canaan generally refers to an area from the Mediterranean coastal plain in the west to the Jordan Valley in the east, the Negev in the south and Galilee in the north. Including parts of Israel, Jordan and northern Egypt today. The name Canaan land in the Bible covers a wider range, referring to the sum of Palestinian areas, northern Lebanon and southwestern Syria.
When the ancestors of the Jews entered here, they called it Canaan (Canaan). Later, the Philistines entered the Mediterranean coast and took control of the coastline from Gaza to Jaffa. They called the place they occupied Palestine, which means the land of Philistines, and it was later used by Greek historians. God ordered Abraham to move westward to Canaan, the promised land and the land of hope. It is said that this is a fertile land, with milk and honey flowing everywhere.
