Joshua 17:9

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Read in KJV Bible Reader

And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river,.... The same mentioned in the account of the coast of Ephraim,

Joshua 16:8; which was north of that river, as Manasseh was to the south of it:

these cities of Ephraim [are] among the cities of Manasseh; that is, the cities before mentioned, Asher, Michmethah, Entappuah, and Tappuah; though they were in the tribe of Manasseh, yet they were inhabited by the Ephraimites:

the coast of Manasseh also [was] on the north side of the river; of the river Kanah, as well as on the south of it; it had cities there, though possessed by the tribe of Ephraim:

and the outgoings of it were at the sea; the Mediterranean sea.
