Genesis 15:18
16 In the fourth generation your descendants will return here, for the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its limit.” 17 When the sun had gone down and it was dark, a smoking firepot with a flaming torch passed between the animal parts. 18 That day the Lord made a covenant with Abram: “To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates River— 19 the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, 20 Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites,
2 Kings 24:7
5 The rest of the events of Jehoiakim’s reign and all his accomplishments, are recorded in the scroll called the Annals of the Kings of Judah. 6 He passed away and his son Jehoiachin replaced him as king. 7 The king of Egypt did not march out from his land again, for the king of Babylon conquered all the territory that the king of Egypt had formerly controlled between the Stream of Egypt and the Euphrates River. 8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan, from Jerusalem. 9 He did evil in the sight of the Lord as his ancestors had done.
Notes and References
"... Deuteronomy 1:6-8 ... Moses’ retrospective does not start from the Exodus but with a reference to Mount Horeb. Thus, it alludes to all the events which this name implies (compare 5:2; 9:8). The land which Israel is to conquer is called ‘the hill country of the Amorites’ by a designation based on the name for the area in Neo-Assyrian inscriptions. An alternative general designation is ‘the land of the Canaanites’, and elsewhere in Deuteronomy a list of peoples is used for describing the population of the land (compare 7:1; 20:17). Whereas chapters 2–3 carefully define Israel’s territorial claims east of the Jordan (compare 3:8), the vision of Israel’s land as extending to the north as far as the river Euphrates (verse 7; compare Joshua 1:4) is alien to the concept of a conquest as well as to Israel’s historical traditions. It may be either an echo of imperial rhetoric or a reflection of political experience in the late seventh century when victory in a battle at Carchemish on the Euphrates in 605 BCE made the Neo-Babylonians the political overlords of Palestine (compare Jeremiah 46:2; 2 Kings 24:7). Verse 8 emphasizes that Israel’s hope for the land is founded on an oath which YHWH swore to her ancestors, compare Genesis 15:18. The verse forms an inclusio with 30:20 ..."
