And the border compasseth it on the north side to Hannathon: and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel:

and the border turned about it on the north to Hannathon; and the goings out thereof were at the valley of Iphtah-el;

And it turneth about to the north of Hanathon: and the outgoings thereof are the valley of Jephtahel,

and the border turned round it northwards to Hannathon: and ended in the valley of Jiphthah-el;

And the border compasseth it on the north side to Hannathon: and the limits of it are in the valley of Jiphthah-el:

and the border hath gone round about it, from the north to Hannathon; and its outgoings have been in the valley of Jiphthah-El,

And the border compasses it on the north side to Hannathon: and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel:

And the line goes round it on the north to Hannathon, ending at the valley of Iphtah-el;

And the border turned about it on the north to Hannathon; and the goings out thereof were at the valley of Iphtahel;

And it circles to the north at Hannathon. And its exits are at the Valley of Iphtahel;

Gyrat item idem terminus ab aquilone ad Hannathon: suntque egressus ejus ad vallem Iphthael.

Hannathon, more properly Channathon, has been supposed by some to be the Cana of Galilee of the New Testament, and Jiphthah-el is probably the present "Jefat"; the "Jotapata" of Roman times, which was so long and valiantly defended by Josephus against the legions of Vespasian. The "Valley" is the "Wady Abilin"; and Bethlehem Joshua 19:15 is the present miserable village of "Beit-Lahin."

And the border compasseth it from the north side to Hannathon,.... This is the northern border of the tribe, which took a circuit from the last place to this; of which and the following place we have no account; Jerom only makes mention of them as in the tribe of Zebulun:
and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel; here the northern border ended, which, Masius conjectures, was part of the valley of Carmel.

"And the boundary turned round it (round Rimmon), on the north to Channathon, and the outgoings thereof were the valley of Jiphtah-el." Judging from the words נסב and מצּפון, this verse apparently gives the north-west boundary, since the last definition in Joshua 19:13, "to Gath-hepher," etc., points to the eastern boundary. Jiphtah-el answers no doubt to the present Jeft, two hours and a half to the north of Sefurieh, and is the Jotapata which was obstinately defended by Josephus (Bell. Jude. iii. 7, 9: see Rob. Bibl. Res. pp. 104ff.). Consequently the valley of Jiphtah-el, at which Zebulun touched Asher (Joshua 19:27), is probably "no other than the large Wady Abiln, which takes its rise in the hills in the neighbourhood of Jeft" (Rob. Bibl. Res. p. 107). And if this be correct, Channathon (lxx Ἐνναθώθ) is probably Cana of Galilee, the home of Nathanael (John 2:1, John 2:11; John 4:46; John 21:2), the present Kana el Jelil, between Rummaneh and Yeft, on the northern edge of the plain of Buttauf, upon a Tell, from which you overlook the plain, fully two hours and a half in a straight line from Nazareth, and directly north of that place, where there are many ruins found (see Rob. iii. p. 204; Bibl. Res. p. 108).
