Joshua 19:10 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 19:10

And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulun,
according to their families
Who, though younger than Issachar, has his lot before him, agreeably to the order in which his blessing is predicted, both by Jacob and Moses, ( Genesis 49:13 ) ( Deuteronomy 33:18 ) ;

and the border of their inheritance was unto Sarid;
or "by Sarid", as Masius, who takes this to be the southwest border of Zebulun, being near Carmel; in which he seems to be right.

Joshua 19:10 In-Context

8 In addition were all the areas that surround these cities as far as Baalath-beer and Ramah of the arid southern plain. This is the legacy of the clans of the Simeonite tribe.
9 Some of the portion of the people of Judah belonged to the legacy of the people of Simeon. This was because the portion of the people of Judah was too large for them. So the people of Simeon received a legacy inside Judah's legacy.
10 The lot turned up third for the clans of Zebulun. The border of their legacy ran as far as Sarid.
11 Their border went up westward to Maralah, touched Dabbesheth, and touched the ravine that is opposite Jokneam.
12 It reversed from Sarid eastward toward the east to the border of Chisloth-tabor. It went to Daberath and then up to Japhia.
