Contextual Overview
13 Thus saith the Lorde God: Let this be the border whereby ye shall inherite the lande according to the twelue tribes of Israel, Ioseph shall haue two portions. 14 And ye shall inherite it one aswell as an other, concerning the which I lift vp my hande to geue it vnto your fathers: and this lande shall fall vnto you for inheritaunce. 15 This is the border of the lande vpon the north side, from the maine sea toward Hethlon, as men go to Zedada. 16 [Namely] Hamah, Berotha, Sabarim, which are betweene the borders of Damascus, and betweene the borders of Hamah, Hazar Hatichon, that lyeth vpon the coastes of Hauran. 17 Thus the borders from the sea foorth shalbe Hazar Enan, the border of Damascus, and the north northwarde, and the borders of Hamah: this is the north part. 18 The east side shall ye measure from Hauran and Damascus, from Galead and the land of Israel by Iordane, and from the border vnto the cast sea: & this is the east part. 19 The south side shalbe toward Teman, from Thamar to the waters of strife in Cades, and the riuer to the maine sea: and that is the south part towarde Teman. 20 The west part also shalbe the great sea, from the borders till a man come ouer against Hamah: this is the west part. 21 This lande shall ye part among you according to the tribes of Israel, 22 And deuide it by lot to be an heritage for you, & for the straungers that dwell among you and beget children among you: for ye shall take them among the children of Israel lyke as though they were of your owne countrey, and they shall haue heritage with you among the children of Israel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim,.... The line of the northern border should be drawn on by Hamath, the same with Antiochia in Syria, since called Epiphania, as Jerom observes, from Antiochus Epiphanies; and go on by Berothah, a city of Hadadezer king of Zobah, 2 Samuel 8:8, the same with the Barothena of Ptolemy q, placed by him in Syria; and from thence the line would be carried on to Sibraim, a city in Arabia Deserta:
which is between the border of Damascus; the chief city in Syria: and the border of Hamath; before mentioned. Calmet r imagines it to be that which Ishmael Abulfeda calls Hovvarin; which he says is a village of the country of Ems or Hamath, to the southeast of the city.
Hazarhatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran; this seems to be explanative of Sibraim, which lay between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; and therefore is called the middle town or village, as "Hazarhatticon" signifies; and lay by the coast of Hauran, which Jerom calls a town of Damascus, with which it is mentioned,
Ezekiel 47:18, from whence the country adjacent is called Auranitis, as this place is here by the Septuagint. The Targum calls Hazar the fish pool of the Agbeans; but for what reason, and what is meant by it, I know not.
q Geograph. l. 5. c. 19. r Dictionary, in the word "Sibraim".
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
“Berothah,” probably the same as “Berothai” (marginal reference), lay between Hamath and Damascus, as did “Sibraim.”
“Hazar-hatticon” is probably, as in the margin, “the middle Hazar,” to distinguish it from Hazar-enan Ezekiel 47:17.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 47:16. Hamath — Emesa or Amesa, in Syria. - Calmet.
Berothah — Berytus, now Baruth or Beeroth, which David took from Hadarezer, king of Syria, 2 Samuel 8:8; but these things are very uncertain.
Sibraim — Sabarim or Sepharvaim, according to the Syriac, between Hamath and Damascus.
Hazar-hatticon — The middle Hazar; or middle village, as the margin.
Hauran. — The city Aurana, and the district Auranitis, are in the north-east limit of the Holy Land.
