What Does Joshua 18:19 Mean?
The line runs past the north side of Bethhoglah and comes out at the north bay of the salt sea, where the Jordan flows in at its south end. This completes the south coast of Benjamin's land.
The border returns at last to water, closing the circuit it began at the Jordan. The whole portion is now enclosed, a finished and bounded gift. What God promised is fully traced, every side accounted for, a complete inheritance laid out for the tribe.
