Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the south side southward from Tamar,.... Not Jericho, as the Targum, Jarchi, and Kimchi, called by this name from the palm trees which grew near it; according to Jerom, this is Palmyra, so called for the same reason; but it is rather Engedi, called Hazazontamar,
2 Chronicles 20:2, the line of the southern border began here, and went on,
even to the waters of strife in Kadesh; to the waters of Meribah in Kadesh; so called, from the strivings of the children of Israel with the Lord there, Numbers 20:1:
the river to the great sea; it proceeded by the river of Egypt, the river Sihor, the Nile, which is before Egypt, Joshua 13:3 and so on to the Mediterranean sea:
and this is the south side southward; the south side of the land, and the southern border of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The south border (compare Numbers 34:4) commences with “Tamar,” probably a village near the southern end of the Dead Sea. The word means “palm-tree;” and is given to more than one city in the holy land.
The river to the great sea - literally, “riverward to the great sea.” By the “river” is meant the torrent-stream entering the Mediterranean near “Rhinocolura” (El Arish).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 47:19. Tamar — Called Hazazon Tamar, or Engedi, 2 Chronicles 20:2.
The river — Besor, which runs into the sea near Gaza.
