Commentary on Joshua 15:5
And the east border was the salt sea, even unto the end of Jordan. And their border in the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan. The eastern boundary uses the Dead Sea as a natural barrier, extending northward to where the Jordan River empties into it. The Hebrew emphasizes totality: "unto the end (qetseh, קְצֵה) of Jordan"—the river's terminus, not some arbitrary point. This geographical precision continues the pattern of meticulous boundary definition.The northern boundary begins where the eastern ended—"the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan"...
