The northern boundary continues from Zedad through Ziphron and concludes at Hazarenan, marking the final northeastern extent of Israel's territory. This line follows natural geographical features and recognized settlement locations, preventing ambiguity about where northern territories end.
Hazarenan's designation as the northern terminus provides a definitive conclusion to this section of boundary description. The cumulative specification of Mount Hor, Hamath's approach, Zedad, Ziphron, and Hazarenan creates an unmistakable northern perimeter.
