Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the east border [was] the salt sea, [even] unto the end of Jordan,.... To the place where Jordan fell into it; so that this border was the whole length of the salt sea, which Josephus says y was five hundred eighty furlongs; and, according to Pliny z, an hundred miles:

and [their] border in the north quarter [was] from the bay of the sea,

at the uttermost part of Jordan; this northern border began where the eastern ended, at the bay or creek of the sea, where Jordan fell into it.

y De Bello Jud. l. 4. c. 8. sect. 4. z Nat. Hist. l. 5. c. 16.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 15:5. The east border was the Salt Sea — The Salt Sea is the same as the Dead Sea, lake Asphaltites, &c. And here it is intimated that the eastern border of the tribe of Judah extended along the Dead Sea, from its lowest extremity to the end of Jordan, i.e., to the place where Jordan falls into this sea.
