151 Now the lot for the tribe of the sons of Judah according to their families reached the border of Edom , southward to the wilderness of Zin at the extreme south . 2 Their south border was from the lower end of the Salt Sea , from the bay that turns to the south . 3 Then it proceeded southward to the ascent of Akrabbim and continued to Zin , then went up by the south of Kadesh-barnea and continued to Hezron , and went up to Addar and turned about to Karka . 4 It continued to Azmon and proceeded to the brook of Egypt , and the border ended e at the sea . This shall be your south border .

Commentary on Joshua 15:1-12
(Read Joshua 15:1-12)
Joshua allotted to Judah, Ephraim, and the half of Manasseh, their inheritances before they left Gilgal. Afterwards removing to Shiloh, another survey was made, and the other tribes had their portion assigned. In due time all God's people are settled.
