Joshua 18:19

And the border passed along to the side of Bethhoglah

Inclining somewhat toward the north, but not leaving the city to the north, for it is included in the lot of Benjamin, ( Joshua 18:21 ) ; of which place see ( Joshua 15:6 ) ;

where it fell into the salt sea:

this [was] the south coast;
as before described.
