Numbers 34:5

WEB

and the border shall turn about from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

KJV

And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

Commentary

And the border shall fetch a compass,.... Not go on in a straight line, but turn about: from Azmon unto the river of Egypt; the river Nile, as both the Targums of Jonathan and Jerusalem; but Aben Ezra seems to deny that that river is meant: and some think that Rhinocolura, which flows into the Mediterranean sea, is meant; or the "valley of Egypt", Casiotis, which divided Judea from Egypt, as follows: and the goings out of it; not of the river, but of the border: shall be at the sea; the above sea, called in the next verse the great sea; all the Targums render it to the west.
