11<\/strong>. the side of the sea<\/em> ] lit. ‘the shoulder of the sea.’ The word is a descriptive term referring to the mountain slopes on the N.E. of the lake; cf. Jos 15:10<\/span>. The sea or lake is that known in N.T. times as the Sea, or Lake, of Galilee.<\/p>\n Verse 11<\/span>. The sea of Chinnereth<\/B><\/I>] The same as the sea of<\/I> Galilee, sea of Tiberias<\/I>, and sea of Gennesareth<\/I>.<\/P><\/p>\n Chinnereth; <\/B>of this name we have a city, Jos 19:35<\/span>, and a country, Jos 11:2<\/span>; 1Ki 15:20<\/span> and a sea or lake, here an Jos 12:3<\/span>; 13:27<\/span> which in the New Testament is called the sea of Gennesaret<\/I>, Luk 5:1<\/span> and of Galilee<\/I>, and of Tiberas<\/I> Joh 6:1<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n And the coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah<\/strong>,…. Said to be in the land of Hemath, Jer 52:9<\/span>, which, according to Jerom x, was Antioch of Syria; and both the Targums of Jonathan and Jerusalem understand by it Daphne, which was in the suburbs of Antioch; but this seems to be carrying the limits of the land too far: Jarchi remarks, that when the border goes from the north towards the south, it is said to go down:<\/p>\n on the east side of Ain<\/strong>; a city in the tribe of Judah; according to Jerom y now a village that goes by the name of Bethennim, two miles from the turpentine tree, that is, from the tent of Abraham or oak of Mamre, and four from Hebron:<\/p>\n and the border shall descend, and shall reach unto the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward<\/strong>; the same with the sea of Tiberius, and the sea of Gennesaret, frequently made mention of in the New Testament, and in<\/p>\n Eze 47:18<\/span>, called the east sea.<\/p>\n x Comment. ut supra. (cf. ver. 15.) y De loc. Heb. fol. 88. F.<\/p>\n (11) Riblah, on the east side of Ain.<\/strong>Ain (Heb., a fountain<\/em>) <\/em>is supposed to be the great fountain of Neba Anjar at the foot of Antilibanus, in which case Riblah must be distinguished from the Riblah in the land of Hamath, which is mentioned in 2Ki. 23:33<\/span> and in Jer. 39:9<\/span>. From this point the boundary went further southward by the side (Heb., shoulder<\/em>) <\/em>of the lake of Chinnereth, or Sea of Galilee, from whence the eastern boundary was the Jordan down to the Dead Sea. This was to be the land of the Israelites, according to its borders on every side.<\/p>\n The sea of Chinnereth.<\/strong>Chinnereth, or Cinnereth, <\/em>appears to have been the name of a district, and also of a town. The name is supposed to be derived from kinnor, <\/em>a harp. In later times the city was called Genusar, <\/em>whence the name Gennesareth, <\/em>as we find it in the Gospels.<\/p>\n 11, 12<\/strong>. <\/strong> Riblah <\/strong> cannot be identified with “Riblah in the land of Hamath,” seeing that four landmarks occur between them. <\/p>\n The east side of Ain <\/strong> Since Ain is a common noun signifying a fountain, and since there are many fountains in northern Palestine, we get no clew from it to the eastern borderline. Robinson identifies this spring with the great fountain of Neba <\/em> or Birket Anjar, <\/em> at the foot of Antilibanus. <\/p>\n Sea of Chinnereth <\/strong> Sea of Tiberias or Galilee. Jos 11:2<\/span>; Mat 4:13<\/span>, notes. <\/p>\n Down to Jordan <\/strong> The boundary shall go along the Jordan (downward) and its termination shall be the salt sea<\/strong>, or the Dead Sea. Gen 14:3<\/span>, note.<\/p>\n Coasts <\/strong> Boundaries. Thus eastern Palestine, the land beyond the Jordan, is not included in the Holy Land.<\/p>\n Num 34:11<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>The coast shall go down from Shepham to Riblah<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> The eastern bounds ran from the head of Jordan, along the whole course of that river, taking in the lake Cinnereth, or the sea of Galilee, or Tiberias, and so to the Dead Sea, till it meets with the south bounds, in the borders of Edom. Shepham <\/em>and Riblah <\/em>were two places near Jordan, along which river the eastern limits went. By Shepham, <\/em>some of the Jewish interpreters understand Apamea, a city of Mesopotamia; and by Riblah, Daphne of Syria, in the suburbs of Antioch. But Bochart shews, that the land of Canaan never extended to these places. See his Can. lib. 1: cap. 16. Ain <\/em>signifies a fountain, i.e. of Jordan, for this river had more sources than one. It seems to have been thus understood by the LXX and the Vulgate. The lake Cinnereth <\/em>was so called, according to Chitraeus, from the Hebrew cinnor, <\/em>a harp, <\/em>or lute, <\/em>because it was in that shape; but Reland derives the name from a canton or village of the same name, situated upon this lake, and in the tribe of Naphtali. See his Palaest. illust. tom. 1: cap. 39. We have been but brief upon this subject, as we shall have occasion to speak more fully respecting the Holy Land, its boundaries and division among the tribes, upon the fourteenth and following chapters of Joshua. In the mean time we refer our readers to Bochart’s Canaan, the Univ. Hist. vol. Num 2:8<\/span> vo. p. 381 and to Dr. Shaw’s Travels. <\/p>\n Biblah. A city in Hamath, where God executed His judgment on two kings of Judah and others (2Ki 23:33; 2Ki 25:6, 2Ki 25:20, 2Ki 25:21. Jer 39:5, Jer 39:6). <\/p>\n Chinnereth. Compare Jos 12:3; Jos 13:27.
