Much of southern Palestine was a dry region known as the Negeb. Within this region lay the barren Wilderness of Zin. It lay south-west of the Dead Sea, between the Dead Sea and Kadesh-barnea (Numbers 20:1-2; Numbers 27:14; Numbers 33:36; Numbers 34:3-5). (For map and other details see PALESTINE, sub-heading ‘Negeb’.)
