The children of Israel give an inheritance to Joshua It went on to Ebron Ebron is a location mentioned in the allotment of land to the tribe of Asher. It is distinct from Hebron, a more well-known city in Judah. The mention of Ebron highlights the detailed nature of the territorial boundaries described in Joshua. This specificity underscores the importance of land inheritance in Israelite society, reflecting God's promise to Abraham regarding the land (Genesis 15:18-21). Rehob Hammon and Kanah as far as Greater Sidon Persons / Places / Events 1. EbronA location within the territory allotted to the tribe of Asher. Its exact historical significance is not well-documented, but it is part of the inheritance given to the tribe. 2. Rehob Another city within Asher's inheritance. Rehob is mentioned in other parts of the Bible as a city of refuge and a place of significance in the tribal allotments. 3. Hammon A lesser-known city in the territory of Asher. Its mention here highlights the detailed nature of the land distribution among the tribes of Israel. 4. Kanah A city or region within Asher's territory. The name means "reed" in Hebrew, indicating a possible marshy or fertile area. 5. Greater Sidon A prominent city-state in ancient Phoenicia, known for its wealth and influence. It represents the northern boundary of Asher's territory. Teaching Points God's Faithfulness in Fulfillment of PromisesThe detailed allotment of land to the tribes of Israel, including Asher, demonstrates God's faithfulness in fulfilling His promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob regarding the land of Canaan. The Importance of Obedience and Faith The failure of Asher to fully drive out the Canaanites serves as a reminder of the importance of obedience to God's commands and the consequences of incomplete faithfulness. Understanding Our Inheritance in Christ Just as the tribe of Asher received a specific inheritance, believers today have a spiritual inheritance in Christ. Reflecting on this can encourage us to live in the fullness of what God has provided. The Role of Boundaries in God's Plan The specific boundaries given to each tribe illustrate the importance of order and structure in God's plan. Recognizing and respecting boundaries can lead to peace and prosperity.Verse 28. - Hebron. Rather, Ebron. It is not the same word as the Hebron in Judah, but is spelt with Ain instead of Hheth. In Joshua 21:30, 1 Chronicles 6:59, Abdon is the name of the city assigned to the Levites in Asher. Twenty MSS., says Keil, have the same reading here. But the LXX. has Ἐβρων here and Αβδων in Joshua 21:30. The Hebrew ד and ר are so much alike that there is no doubt that the mistake has arisen earlier than the time when that translation was made. It is true that the lists of Levitical cities in Joshua 21. and 1 Chronicles 6. do not entirely correspond. But the resemblance here between the names is too striking to allow of the supposition that two different cities are meant. Great Zidon. This city, as well as Tyro, remained unsubdued, although assigned by Joshua to Asher. The boundary of Asher appears to have been traced first towards the west, then eastward, from a middle point on the southern border (see note on ver. 11), then to have been carried northward from the same point (the left hand usually means the north; see note on Teman, Joshua 15:1), on the east side till it reached Cabul. Then the northern border is traced westward to Sidon. Then the border turned southward along the sea, which is not mentioned, because it would seem to be sufficiently defined by the mention of Ramah and Tyre. Between Hosah and Achzib there would seem to have been a greater paucity of cities, and therefore the sea is mentioned. Parallel Commentaries ...
