Joshua 16:3

16:3

Beth Horon <01032> [Beth-horon.]

Eusebius says that the two Beth-horons were twelve miles from Jerusalem, towards Nicopolis or Emmaus: of which the one, called upper Beth-horon, from its situation, was built (rebuilt) by Solomon, and the other, called nether Beth-horon, was given to the Levites. Josephus places Beth-oron about 100 furlongs from Jerusalem. Dr. Clarke mentions an Arab village called Bethoor, about twelve miles from Jerusalem, a small distance from Rama, which he supposes, from its situation on a hill, to be Beth-horon the upper.

Gezer <01507> [Gezer.]

Probably the [gazara] of Eusebius, four miles from Nicopolis.

westward .................... sea <03220> [the sea]


Joshua 18:17

18:17

En Shemesh <05885> [En-shemesh.]

The fountain of the Sun; whether a town, or simply a fountain, is uncertain.

Geliloth <01553> [Geliloth.]

Geliloth is probably the same as Gilgal; though as the word may signify border or limits, some think that it is probably not the proper name of a place: "And went forth towards the borders which are over against the ascent to Adummim." Others render Geliloth circuits or roundings, or the hills about Jordan, {tumuli Jordanis.} Vulgate: {pertransit usque ad tumulos.}

Stone <068> [the stone.]
