And all the country of Goshen - Calmet contends that this was the very same country in which the Hebrews dwelt before their departure from Egypt; and according to this hypothesis he has constructed his map, causing it to extend from the Nile, which was called the river of Egypt, along the frontiers of the land of Cush or Arabia. It however appears plain that there was a city named Goshen in the tribe of Judah, see Jos 15:51; and this probably gave name to the adjacent country which may be that referred to above.

Barnes -> Jos 10:41
Barnes: Jos 10:41 - -- From Kadesh-barnea unto Gaza - Num 13:26 This limits Joshua’ s conquests on the west, as the other line, "all the country of Goshen unto G...
From Kadesh-barnea unto Gaza - Num 13:26 This limits Joshua’ s conquests on the west, as the other line, "all the country of Goshen unto Gibeon,"does on the east. Goshen Jos 15:51 has not been identified. It was in the southern part of the territory of Judah, and is, of course, quite distinct from the Goshen of Gen 46:28.

Gaza. These cities were on the southern limits of the land of Chanaan, and of the Philistines. ---
Gosen, or Gessen, where the Hebrews had formerly dwelt. It was then very fertile, chap. xiii. 3. The territory of Juda extended as far as the Nile; (Calmet) or this country may have resembled the country of Gessen, Genesis xlvi. (Menochius) ---
It seems indeed rather wonderful, that if this was a part of the promised land, God should order his people to leave it, as it were, to the Egyptians; and father they had occupied another part of the country, should seize it again. But he might have secret reasons for this order. (Haydock)
Gill -> Jos 10:41
Gill: Jos 10:41 - -- And Joshua smote them, from Kadeshbarnea,.... Which lay to the south of the land of Canaan, Num 13:17,

And Joshua smote them, from Kadeshbarnea,.... Which lay to the south of the land of Canaan, Num 13:17,
even unto Gaza, which lay to the southwest, and was one of the five principalities of the Philistines; of which city See Gill on Amo 1:7; and See Gill on Act 8:26,
and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon; to which he returned back in his way to his camp at Gilgal, having conquered all the southern part of the country. This country of Goshen is not that in the land of Egypt, as Kimchi rightly remarks. Bishop Cumberland m is of opinion, that the Phoenician or Canaanitish pastors, who were driven out of Egypt before their expulsion, inhabited that part of Egypt called Goshen, which the Israelites some years after dwelt in; and when those shepherds were driven out, they came into this part of the land of Canaan, and called it after the name of the country they left in Egypt; and might perhaps the rather choose to give it this name, because of the goodness and fruitfulness of it, in which it resembled the country they had formerly dwelt in.
