He recaptured Lot and all the other plunder.
We moved on.

We were now in a green valley, five or six miles wide and fifteen long.

The streams which are called the sources of the Jordan flow through it to Lake Huleh, a shallow pond three miles in diameter, and from the southern extremity of the Lake the concentrated Jordan flows out.

The Lake is surrounded by a broad marsh, grown with reeds.

Between the marsh and the mountains which wall the valley is a respectable strip of fertile land; at the end of the valley, toward Dan, as much as half the land is solid and fertile, and watered by Jordan's sources.
