The eastern border is the Salt Sea up to the mouth of the Jordan. The northern border runs from the northern extremity of the Dead Sea at the mouth of the Jordan River,
The border turns from the top of the hill to the waters of Nephtoah and goes out to the cities of Mount Ephron, then turns to Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim).
On the western side, the border turns south from the hill that lies to the south near Beth-horon, and it extends to Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city belonging to Judah. This is the western border.
