Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Helkath: 2 Samuel 2:16
Beten: Probably the same as Bebeten or Batnai, mentioned by Eusebius, eight miles east from Ptolemais; and perhaps the Ecbatana which Pliny places not far from Ptolemais.
Achshaph: Joshua 11:1, Joshua 12:20
Reciprocal: Joshua 21:30 - Mishal 1 Chronicles 6:75 - Hukok
Cross-References
And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.
All these joined together in the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea).
A fruitful land into barrenness, For the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And their border was Helkath,.... Helkath seems to be the same with Hukok, 1 Chronicles 6:75; and according to Masius it lay ten or twelve miles above Ptolemais;
and Hali, of which we read nowhere else.
and Beten is by Jerom h called Bathne, and was in his time a village by the name of Bethebem, eight miles from Ptolemais to the east. Reland i seems to think it might be the Ecbatana of Pliny k, which he speaks of as near Mount Carmel, and not far from Ptolemais;
and Achshaph was a royal city, whose king was taken by Joshua,
1 Chronicles 6:75- :.
h De loc. Heb. fol. 89. H. i Palestin. Illustrat. tom. 2. p. 617. k Nat. Hist. l. 5. c. 19.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Helkath, a Levitical town Joshua 21:31, is probably Yerka, a village about seven or eight miles north-west of Acre, in a Wady of the same name. Alammelech was in the “Wady Melik,” which joins the Kishon from the northeast, not far from the sea.
Shihor-libnath - i. e. “black-white.” The two words are now generally admitted to be the name of a river, probably the modern “Nahr Zerka,” or Blue River, which reaches the sea about 8 miles south of Dor, and whose name has a correspondence both to black and white. Possibly we have in the occurrence of the term Shihor here a trace of the contact, which was close and continuous in ancient times, between Phoenicia and Egypt Joshua 13:3. Cabul Joshua 19:27 still retains its ancient name; it lies between four and five miles west of Jotapata and about ten miles southeast of Acre.
