Numbers 34:8

“From Mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath, etc.] Antiochia, as Jarchi; or rather Epiphania, as Jerom f493; the former being described by Hemath the great, (<300602>Amos 6:2), this entrance was a narrow pass leading from the land of Canaan to Syria, through the valley which lies between Lebanon and Antilibanus: and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad; the same boundary as here is given in (<264715>Ezekiel 47:15).”

“entrance of Hamath--The northern plain between those mountain ranges, now the valley of Balbeck (see on Num 13:21). Zedad--identified as the present Sudud (Eze 47:15).”

“The northern border. On the “Mount Hor,” compare Numbers 20:22 note. Here the name denotes the whole western crest of Mount Lebanon, 80 miles in length, commencing east of Zidon, and terminating with the point immediately above the entrance of Hamath (compare Numbers 13:21). The extreme point in the northern border of the land was the city of Zedad (Sadad), about 30 miles east of the entrance of Hamath. Hence, the border turned back southwestward to Ziphron (Zifran), about 40 miles northeast of Damascus. Hazar-enan may be conjecturally identified with Ayun ed-Dara, a fountain situate in the very heart of the great central chain of Antilibanus. return to 'Top of Page'”
