Verse 16

And the border came down ,.... In the description of the border of Judah, hereabout, it is said to go up, Joshua 15:5 ; because there, as Jarchi observes, the measure was from east to west, but here from west to east:

to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom ; this south border of Benjamin is the same with the north border of Judah; and the same places are mentioned in the description of the one as of the other, see Joshua 15:8 . The mountain is Mount Moriah,

and which is in the valley of the giants on the north ; on the north of the valley of Rephaim:

and descended to the valley of Hinnom ; the border from the end of Mount Moriah to that valley:

to the side of Jebusi on the south ; to the south side of Jerusalem, having that city on the south:

and descended to Enrogel ; of which See Gill on Joshua 15:7 .
