It was to be their land and was promised to them by God. (The Promised Land). At the present time they only occupy a portion of this land promised to them. Eventually it will stretch from Damascus to the boarders of Egypt.

Josh. 23: 5, 15
5 And the Lord your God, he shall aexpel them from before you, and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as the Lord your God hath promised unto you.

And I will aremember the covenant which I have made with my people; and I have covenanted with them that I would bgather them together in mine own due time, that I would give unto them again the cland of their fathers for their inheritance, which is the land of Jerusalem, which is the promised land unto them forever, saith the Father.



The name Palestine was not the opriginal name of the land, but all was called Jerusalem.
