A Conditional Inheritance
This verse describes God's plan to expand Israel's territory to the full extent promised to Abraham, from Egypt to the Euphrates. Commentators note this promise was conditional on Israel's faithfulness. Its fulfillment was only briefly and partially realized under David and Solomon because the people's sin prevented them from possessing the complete inheritance.
