← John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible — Joshua

Joshua 12:3

Ver. 3. And from the plain,.... Or rather, "and the plain", the plains of Moab, which, before possessed by the Israelites, belonged to the kingdom of Sihon; and the plains of Jordan, which reached

to the sea of Cinneroth on the east; the same with the lake of Gennesaret, and sea of Tiberias, mentioned in the New Testament, Mt 14:34:

and unto the sea of the plain; where stood the cities of the plain, Sodom, Gomorrah, &c.

[even] the salt sea on the east; the same with the dead sea, into which the plain the above cities stood on was converted:

the way to Bethjeshimoth; which was a place in the plains of Moab, Nu 33:49;

and from the south under Ashdothpisgah; or the springs of Pisgah, which flowed from the mount of that name, De 3:17.
