This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
To Gilead; to Mount Gilead, which lay northward from Arnon.
Tahtim-hodshi; a place so called. Or, the lowland lately gained, i. e. not given by Joshua, but taken lately from the Hagarites by Saul; which was near Gilead, 1Ch_5:10.
Dan-jaan, i.e. probably the famous city of Dan, as it is called, Jos_19:47 Jud_18:7; for this was in the northern border of the land, and in the way from Gilead to Zidon.
About to Zidon, i.e. to the city and territory of Zidon; but not into it, because it was not in the power and possession of the Israelites: and the like is to be thought concerning Tyre, and the cities which the Hivites and Canaanites yet possessed in the neighbourhood of Tyre and Sidon.
