En el siglo 8 A.C., Samaria fue una de las más importantes provincias del Imperio Asirio. Conocida también como Israel, Samaria se rebeló repetidamente contra los jefes asirios, pero en el año 722, los asirios invadieron Samaria de una vez por todas, matando a innumerables personas y enviando al exilio forzoso a la mayoría de los sobrevivientes.

En el siglo I de nuestra era vivió un hombre llamado Jesús en Judea, en ese tiempo una provincia de Roma. El hombre de origen rural era considerado por unos como un profeta, por otros como un loco y por otros más como un peligro para la seguridad de Israel.

La Biblia hace referencia a Canaán en varias ocasiones. Por ejemplo, Dios ordenó a los israelitas destruir a los cananeos tras la huida de los israelitas desde Egipto.

Las fronteras de la región además eran frecuentemente redefinidas.
