In the biblical narrative, Jacob is renamed "Israel" in the book of Genesis.

Throughout the remainder of the bible his descendants are at times referred to as the "children of Israel".

------

Canaan is the land of the Israelites.

This answer is correct, technically. But if you are a person that was looking for the actual answer to this question like I was, the answer is "The Jewish State."

If this also was not the answer that you were looking for, or if you are in need of any other information feel free to in-box me on Facebook.
