Canaan in Hope

While the Israelites dwelt in the house of bondage, and their Canaan was only the land of promise, the Edomites dwelt in their own habitations, and Seir was in their possession. The children of this world have their all in hand, and nothing in hope (Luke 16:25), while children of God have their all in hope, and next to nothing in hand. But all things considered, it is better to have Canaan in hope than Mount Seir in possession.
