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.
