Me-Jarkon
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
mē - jar´kon ( היּרקון מי , mē ha - yarḳōn ; θάλασσα Ἱεράκων , thálassa Hierákon ): The Hebrew may mean "yellow water." The phrase is literally, "the waters of Jarkon." Septuagint reads "and from the river, Jarkon and the boundary near Joppa." From this possibly we should infer a place called Jarkon in the lot of Dan; but no name resembling this has been found. The text ( Joshua 19:46 ) is corrupt.
