 This Negev, the south land, refers to the desert that is south of Judah. It's a dry place. It's an arid, a barren place. And in the dry season, the streams in the Negev, the streams in the south, that desert region, have little or no water. So they have what they call wadis, W-A-D-I, in Israel. These are just empty riverbeds that in the dry season are dry as a bone.
