Your question, What is the land that God promised to Israel? I’m not sure if your referring to the promised made unto Abraham or not with your question. But I would like to address the promised made unto made to Abraham that he would inherit a country wherein would be a city whose builder and maker was God. Where God himself would dwell. Abraham, throughout his entire life, embarked on a journey in search of the promises made to him by God, yet he never succeeded in obtaining them. Consequently, it was said that he traveled in the land of promise, seeking the fulfillment of God’s promises. There are two very important scriptures you must come to know. The first is who the promises were made to. We see in Galatians 3:16 “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ,” that the promises were made to Abraham and to Christ. Now let’s see the promised land God spoke of and why Abraham never came into it. Hebrews 11:14 “For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.” Abraham was in search of a land that did not exist on this earth. It was a heavenly place that God has prepared. So the promised land is a heavenly place not of this world but the one to come.
