Joshua 13:4

Context
13:4 to the south; 1  all the Canaanite territory, 2  from Arah 3  in the region of Sidon 4  to Aphek, as far as Amorite territory;

1 tn Or “from Teman.” The phrase is especially problematic if taken with what follows, as the traditional verse division suggests. For further discussion see T. C. Butler, Joshua (WBC), 146.

2 tn Heb “all the land of the Canaanites.”

3 tc The reading “Arah” assumes a slight emendation of the Hebrew vowel pointing. The MT reads, “and a cave,” or “and Mearah” (if one understands the word as a proper noun).

4 tn Heb “which belongs to the Sidonians.”
