Joshua 17:10 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 17:10

Southward [it was] Ephraim's, and northward [it was]
Manasseh's
As Ephraim lay to the south of Manasseh, Manasseh lay to the north of Ephraim:

and the sea is his border;
the Mediterranean sea was their boundary on the west:

and they met together in Asher on the north;
that is, on the northwest towards the Mediterranean sea, as, at Mount Carmel:

and in Issachar on the east;
towards Jordan.

Joshua 17:10 In-Context

8 etenim in sorte Manasse ceciderat terra Taffuae quae est iuxta terminos Manasse filiorum Ephraim

9 descenditque terminus vallis Harundineti in meridiem torrentis civitatum Ephraim quae in medio sunt urbium Manasse terminus Manasse ab aquilone torrentis et exitus eius pergit ad mare

10 ita ut ab austro sit possessio Ephraim et ab aquilone Manasse et utramque claudat mare et coniungantur sibi in tribu Aser ab aquilone et in tribu Isachar ab oriente

11 fuitque hereditas Manasse in Isachar et in Aser Bethsan et viculi eius et Ieblaam cum villulis suis et habitatores Dor cum oppidis suis habitatores quoque Hendor cum villulis suis similiterque habitatores Thanach cum villulis suis et habitatores Mageddo cum viculis suis et tertia pars urbis Nofeth

12 nec potuerunt filii Manasse has subvertere civitates sed coepit Chananeus habitare in terra ista
