Joshua 19:14 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 19:14

And the border compasseth it from the north side to
Hannathon
This is the northern border of the tribe, which took a circuit from the last place to this; of which and the following place we have no account; Jerom only makes mention of them as in the tribe of Zebulun:

and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel;
here the northern border ended, which, Masius conjectures, was part of the valley of Carmel.

Joshua 19:14 In-Context

12 It turns from Sarid to the east to the sunrise, to the border of Kislot-Tabor; it continues to Daberath and goes up [to] Japhia.
13 From there it passes [along] to the east toward the sunrise, to Gath Hepher and to Eth Kazin, and continuing [to] Rimmon, it turns [to] Neah;
14 it changes direction from the north of Hannathon, and {it ends} at the valley of Yiptah-El;
15 Kattath, Nahalal, Shimron, Idalah, and Bethlehem; twelve cities and their villages.
16 This [is] the inheritance of the descendants of Zebulun according to their families, these cities and their villages.
