Any piece of land that the Lords sends His people to stay for a while. The Promised Land for the Jews, which will be their final home, has always been Israel or Palestine as it is called now.
The part of Palestine they occupy at present is but a small portion of what they will finally own. Their homeland will stretch from the borders of Egypt to at least 100 miles past Damascus. IT will be 100 miles at it widest boarder.
Answer:
The "Promised Land" is the "material" portion of the two-fold agreement [covenant] that God made with Abraham. The "spiritual" portion was that "all the families of the earth would be blessed" through Abraham by his faith [better known as "salvation in Christ"].
God sent Abraham to Canaan and established this region for the inheritance of his descendants.
However... through the eventual salvation of all the nations of the world through Christ... the tiny tract of land in the Middle East becomes too small to handle the population of many generations of mankind.
"...I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore..." (Gen.22:17).
So the ultimate expanse of the "Promised Land" is described this way in The Bible:
"...For the Promise, that he should be THE HEIR OF THE WORLD, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith." (Rom.4:13)
And for all that... even the world could not contain all the generations that number as the stars of heaven and the sand in the sea. In the end, therefore, the "entire universe" becomes the inheritance of "God's Children"... the recipients of His salvation.
"He that overcometh shall INHERIT ALL THINGS; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son." (Rev.21:7)
"All things" means "everything that is"... and must include "the universe"... or it becomes meaningless.
We are told that Jesus has been: "...appointed Heir of ALL THINGS..." (Heb.1:2).
He has inherited all of His Father's possessions. And since His Father owns the universe and everything in it -- Jesus has inherited the universe.
And as His "brothers" [God's Children]... those who shall receive the Promised "blessing" of "salvation" shall also inherit the universe with Christ.
"The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the CHILDREN OF GOD: and if Children, then Heirs; Heirs of God, and JOINT-HEIRS WITH CHRIST; if so be that we suffer with Him, that we MAY BE ALSO GLORIFIED TOGETHER." (Rom.8:16-17)
The Land Promised to Abraham and his children far exceeds what most men have not even begun to imagine. There is "land" out there in space... untold planets... that is the number of the "stars of heaven"... that is the number of Abraham's "faithful" seed.
"Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham... And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and HEIRS according to thePromise." (Gal.3:7 & 29)
"...these Words are TRUE and FAITHFUL... He that overcometh shall INHERIT ALL THINGS; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son." (Rev.21:5-7)
The "Promised Land" is "the universe."
