The children of Israel give an inheritance to Joshua Then the border turned westward to Aznoth-tabor This phrase describes a boundary line for the tribe of Naphtali. Aznoth-tabor is likely a location near Mount Tabor, a significant landmark in the region. Mount Tabor is traditionally identified as the site of the Transfiguration of Jesus (Matthew 17:1-9), making it a place of both historical and theological importance. The westward turn indicates a change in direction, suggesting a defined and deliberate demarcation of tribal territories. and ran from there to Hukkok touching Zebulun on the south side Asher on the west and Judah at the Jordan on the east Persons / Places / Events 1. Aznoth-taborA location mentioned as a boundary marker for the tribe of Naphtali. Its exact location is uncertain, but it is believed to be near Mount Tabor. 2. Hukkok Another boundary location for Naphtali, possibly a village or region in the northern part of Israel. 3. Zebulun One of the tribes of Israel, whose territory bordered Naphtali to the south. 4. Asher Another tribe of Israel, located to the west of Naphtali's territory. 5. Judah at the Jordan This phrase is somewhat enigmatic, as Judah's territory was primarily in the south. It may refer to a specific landmark or a historical claim. Teaching Points Understanding God's ProvisionThe detailed boundaries show God's specific provision and care for each tribe, reminding us that God knows our needs and provides accordingly. The Importance of Boundaries Just as the tribes had specific boundaries, we too need boundaries in our lives to maintain order and purpose. Unity Among Diversity The tribes had distinct territories but were part of one nation. This teaches us the value of unity in diversity within the body of Christ. Historical and Spiritual Heritage Recognizing the historical significance of these locations can deepen our appreciation for the spiritual heritage we have in Christ. Trust in God's Promises The fulfillment of land allotments is a testament to God's faithfulness in keeping His promises, encouraging us to trust Him in our lives.(34) Hukkok (Yak-k, sheet 6), in the same region as the above, but a little further north, near the northeast boundary of Zebulun. Of Judah upon Jordan we can say nothing with certainty.Verse 34. - And then the coast turneth westward. Here the words are literally translated without any confusion between the west and the sea, nor any misapprehension of the meaning of the word נסב. Reacheth. This is the same word translated skirteth above, ver. 11, note. We have it here clearly stated that Naphtali was bordered on the south by Zebulun, on the west by Asher, and on the east by "Judah upon Jordan." To Judah. These words have caused great trouble to translators and expositors for 2,000 years. The LXX. omits them altogether, rendering, "and the Jordan to the eastward." The Masorites, by inserting a disjunctive accent between them and the words that follow, would have us render, "and to Judah: Jordan towards the sun rising," or, "is towards the sunrising," a rendering which gives no reasonable sense. They unquestionably form part of the text, since no version but the LXX. omits them. A suggestion of Von Raumer's has found favour that the cities called Havoth Jair, which were on the eastern side of Jordan, opposite the inheritance of Naphtali, are meant. Jair was a descendant of Judah by the father's side, through Hezron. So Ritter, 4:338 (see 1 Chronicles 2:21-23). It would seem that the principle of female inheritance, having once been admitted in the tribe of Manasseh, was found capable of further extension. But to the majority of the Israelites this settlement would no doubt be regarded as an offshoot of the tribe of Judah. Parallel Commentaries ...
