SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:34
y tornando de allí este término hacia el occidente a Aznot-tabor, pasa de allí a Hucoc, y llega hasta Zabulón al mediodía, y al occidente confina con Aser, y con Judá al Jordán hacia donde nace el sol.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 19:34
Verse 34. And to Judah upon Jordan] It is certain that the tribe of Naphtali did not border on the east upon Judah, for there were several tribes betwixt them. Some think that as these two tribes were bounded by Jordan on the east, they might be considered as in some sort conjoined, because of the easy passage to each other by means of the river; but this might be said of several other tribes as well as of these. There is considerable difficulty in the text as it now stands; but if, with the Septuagint, we omit Judah, the difficulty vanishes, and the passage is plain: but this omission is supported by no MS. hitherto discovered. It is however very probable that some change has taken place in the words of the text, dryh hdwhybw ubihudah haiyarden, "and by Judah upon Jordan." Houbigant, who terms them verba sine re ac sententia, "words without sense or meaning," proposes, instead of them, to read dryh twdgbw ubigdoth haiyarden, "and by the banks of Jordan;" a word which is used chap. iii. 15, and which here makes a very good sense.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 34. And [then] the coast turneth westward to Aznothtabor , etc.] This was the southern border, reaching from east to west; it began at Aznothtabor, which Jerom says was a village in his time belonging to the country of Diocaesarea, in the plains; there is another place called Chislothtabor, on the borders of Zebulun, ( Joshua 19:12); and goeth out from thence to Hukkok : there the southern border ended, which was in the border of Asher, and is the same with Helkath, ( Joshua 19:25); with which compare ( 1 Chronicles 6:75); and reacheth to Zebulun on the south side, and reacheth to Asher on the west side and to Judah upon Jordan towards the sunrising ; so that as it was bounded by Lebanon, on the north, near to which some of the cities were, mentioned in ( Joshua 19:33), it had Zebulun on the south, Asher on the west, and Jordan to the east; for by Judah is not meant the tribe of Judah, from which Naphtali was at a great distance, but a city so called, as Fuller seems rightly to conjecture.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 17-51 - Joshua waited till all the tribes were settled, before he asked an provision for himself. He was content to be unfixed, till he saw the all placed, and herein is an example to all in public places, to prefe the common welfare before private advantage. Those who labour most to do good to others, seek an inheritance in the Canaan above: but it wil be soon enough to enter thereon, when they have done all the service to their brethren of which they are capable. Nor can any thing mor effectually assure them of their title to it, than endeavouring to bring others to desire, to seek, and to obtain it. Our Lord Jesus cam and dwelt on earth, not in pomp but poverty, providing rest for man yet himself not having where to lay his head; for Christ pleased no himself. Nor would he enter upon his inheritance, till by his obedienc to death he secured the eternal inheritance for all his people; no will he account his own glory completed, till every ransomed sinner is put in possession of his heavenly rest __________________________________________________________________
