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 land of Tappuach belonged to Menashsheh; but Tappuach on the border of Menashsheh belonged to the children of Efrayim.

9 The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook: these cities belonged to Efrayim among the cities of Menashsheh: and the border of Menashsheh was on the north side of the brook, and the goings out of it were at the sea:

10 southward it was Efrayim's, and northward it was Menashsheh's, and the sea was his border; and they reached to Asher on the north, and to Yissakhar on the east.

11 Menashsheh had in Yissakhar and in Asher Beit-She'an and its towns, and Yivle`am and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Ta`nakh and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, even the three heights.

12 Yet the children of Menashsheh couldn't drive out [the inhabitants of] those cities; but the Kana`anim would dwell in that land.
