Commentary

John Gill

From Mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath,.... Antiochia, as Jarchi; or rather Epiphania, as Jerom (r); the former being described by Hemath the great, Amo 6:2, this entrance was a narrow pass leading from the land of Canaan to Syria, through the valley which lies between Lebanon and Antilibanus:

and the goings forth of the border shall be to Zedad; the same boundary as here is given in Eze 47:15.

(r) Comment. in Ezek. 47. 16.

JFB

entrance of Hamath--The northern plain between those mountain ranges, now the valley of Balbeck (see on Num 13:21).

Zedad--identified as the present Sudud (Eze 47:15).
