Ephraim

The border of the descendants of Ephraim was arranged according to their clans.

The southern border of their inheritance, starting from the east end, extends from Ataroth Addar up to Upper Beth Horon.

Then the border goes out to the sea.[a]

Starting at Mikmethath on the northeast, the border curves around toward the southeast, toward Ta’anath Shiloh, and it crosses over on the east of Janoah.

Then it descends from Janoah to Ataroth and to Na’arath. It touches Jericho and goes out to the Jordan.[b]

  1. Joshua 16:6 This description includes both the southern and the western borders.
  2. Joshua 16:7 This seems to describe the eastern part of the northern border as well as the eastern border, but the whole description of the border is difficult.
