Joshua 16:4 In-Context

2 Then it continued from Bethel (also called Luz) to the Arkite border at Ataroth.
3 From there it went west to the border of the Japhletites and continued to the area of the Lower Beth Horon. Then it went to Gezer and ended at the sea.
4 So Manasseh and Ephraim, sons of Joseph, received their land.
5 This is the land that was given to the family groups of Ephraim: Their border started at Ataroth Addar in the east, went to Upper Beth Horon,
6 and then to the sea. From Micmethath it turned eastward toward Taanath Shiloh and continued eastward to Janoah.
