Numbers 34:10 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 34:10

And ye shall point out your east border from Hazarenan to
Shepham.
] From the place where the northern border ended, which Jerom says F21 the Hebrews call Apamia, as both the Targums of Jonathan and Jerusalem do here. Shepham was a city between Hazarenan and Riblah in the tribe of Naphtali, where Adrichomius F23 places it.
