Verse 11
And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward ,.... Which was one of the principalities of the Philistines; and which, though it fell to the lot of Judah, Joshua 15:45 , was not possessed by them:
and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to Mount Baalah ; of which places we have no account elsewhere:
and went unto Jabneel ; which Masius makes no doubt was one of the Jamnias, and particularly that which was a seaport; which Strabo says F1 Geograph. l. 16. p. 522. was distant from Azotus and Ashkelon about two hundred furlongs, or twenty five miles:
and the goings out of the border were at the sea ; the Mediterranean sea; here the northern border ended.
