Yǐsījiēshū 47:18 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 47:18

And the east side ye shall measure Hauran
The line of the eastern border of the land shall begin at Hauran or Auranitis; see ( Ezekiel 47:16 ) , which lay to the south F19 of Damascus: and it follows, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border unto the east
sea;
and so from Damascus, the metropolis of Syria; and likewise from Gilead, a mountain and country beyond Jordan; and also from that part of the land of Israel near to Jordan; and so from the northern border to the east sea, or sea of Galilee or Tiberias: and this is the east side:
of the land, or the eastern border of it, reaching from Hauran to the lake of Gennesaret, or to the Salt sea, the sea of Sodom; see ( Numbers 34:10-12 ) .
