Shofetim 1:36 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 1:36

And the coast of the Amorites [was] from the going up to
Akrabbim Of which (See Gill on Numbers 34:4) and (See Gill on Joshua 15:3):

from the rock, and upwards;
even from the city Petra in Idumea, and beyond that; and there was a country near Idumea, called Acrabatane, from this mountain Akrabbim,

``Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea at Arabattine, because they besieged Gael: and he gave them a great overthrow, and abated their courage, and took their spoils.'' (1 Maccabees 5:3)

such was the extent of these people, that their coast reached from the places, mentioned to the mountains where the above cities of Dan were; they were the most powerful people among the Canaanites, and lay on both sides of Jordan, and were very troublesome to Israel, yet were at length destroyed, ( Amos 2:9 ) .
