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 The region of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah itself, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to Ephraim.
9 From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah. There were cities belonging to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh, but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and ended at the Sea.
10 Ephraim’s territory was to the south, and Manasseh’s was to the north, having the Sea as its border and adjoining Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.
11 Within Issachar and Asher, Manasseh was assigned Beth-shean, Ibleam, Dor (that is, Naphath), Endor, Taanach, and Megiddo, each with their surrounding settlements.
12 But the descendants of Manasseh were unable to occupy these cities, because the Canaanites were determined to stay in this land.
