Commentary

Matthew Henry on Joshua 19:40-48

Dan, though commander of one of the four squadrons of the camp of Israel, in the wilderness, that which brought up the rear, yet was last provided for in Canaan, and his lot fell in the southern part of Canaan, between Judah on the east and the land of the Philistines on the west, Ephraim on the north and Simeon on the south. Providence ordered this numerous and powerful tribe into a post of danger, as best able to deal with those vexatious neighbours the Philistines, and so it was found in Samson. Here is an account, 1.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Joshua 19:40

OF DAN. (Jos 19:40-48) the seventh lot came out for the tribe . . . Dan--It lay on the west of Benjamin and consisted of portions surrendered by Judah and Ephraim. Its boundaries are not stated, as they were easily distinguishable from the relative position of Dan to the three adjoining tribes.

Adam Clarke on Joshua 19:45

Jehud, and Bene-berak - Or Jehud of the children of Berak.

John Gill on Joshua 19:45

And Jehud,.... Of Jehud no mention is made elsewhere: and Beneberak signifies sons of lightning; see Mark 3:17. Jerom (x) speaks of tills as the name of two places, Bane in the tribe of Dan, and Barach in the same tribe, and which was in his day near Azotus. This place was famous in later times among the Jews for being a place where one of their noted Rabbins, R. Akiba, abode and taught for some time (y): and Gathrimmon was in Jerom's (z) time a very large village, twelve miles from Diospolis, or Lydda, as you go from Eleutheropolis to it; it was a city given to the Levites, Joshua 21:24. (x) De loc. Heb. fol. 89. H. (y) T. Bab. Sanhedrin, fol. 32. 2.((z) De loc. Heb. fol. 92. C.
