- Joshua 15:6
The northern border started from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan, went up to Beth-hoglah, proceeded north of Beth-arabah, and went up to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben.
Commentary on Joshua 15:62 voices
And the border went up to Bethhoglah,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Beth-hogla - A place between Jericho and the Dead Sea, belonging to the tribe of Benjamin, Jos 18:21, though here serving as a frontier to the tribe of Judah. Stone of Bohan - This must have been some remarkable place, probably like the stone of Jacob, which afterwards became Bethel; but where it was situated is uncertain.

- Joshua 15:61
These were in the wilderness:
Commentary on Joshua 15:611 voice
In the wilderness,.... The wilderness of Judea, which was not a desert and uninhabited but had many cities and villages in it, those that follow: Betharabah; the first of these seems to be in the borders of Judah and Benjamin, and so is ascribed to both; see Jos 15:6, Middin, and Secacah; of the two last we read nowhere else, only in Jdg 5:10; what we translate "ye that sit in judgment", Kimchi interprets, "ye that dwell by Middin", and says it is the name of a place in Joshua, and mentions this passage.

- Joshua 18:18
Then it went on to the northern slope of Beth-arabah and went down into the valley.
Commentary on Joshua 18:181 voice
And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward,.... The same with Betharabah, Jos 15:6; and so it is called here in the Greek version: and went down unto Arabah; the same as before, and included it, for it is mentioned among the cities of this tribe, Jos 18:22.

- Joshua 18:22
Jericho, Beth-hoglah, Emek-keziz, Beth-arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel,
Commentary on Joshua 18:221 voice
And Betharabah,.... Of the first of these; see Gill on Jos 15:6, and Zemaraim; one of the sons of Canaan was named Zemira, Gen 10:18; by whom this city Zemaraim might be built, or however have its name given it, in memory of him; there was a mountain of this name in the tribe of Ephraim, near to which this city might be, 2Ch 13:4. and Bethel; of the last of these; see Gill on Jos 7:2.
