SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:6
y sube este término por Bet-hogla, y pasa del norte a Bet-arabá, y de aquí sube este término a la piedra de Bohán, hijo de Rubén.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 15:6
Verse 6. Beth-hogla] A place between Jericho and the Dead Sea, belonging to the tribe of Benjamin, chap. xviii. 21, though here serving as a frontier to the tribe of Judah. Stone of Bohan] This must have been some remarkable place, probably like the stone of Jacob, which afterwards became Bethel; but where it was situated is uncertain.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. And the border went up to Bethhoglah , etc.] A place in the tribe of Benjamin, mentioned along with Jericho, and probably near it, ( Joshua 18:21); Jerom speaks of a place called Betagla, in his time, which was three miles from Jericho, and two from Jordan, and perhaps is this same place: and passed along by the north of Betharabah ; another city belonged to Benjamin, ( Joshua 18:22); and lay in a as its name shows; or in a plain, as the Targum: and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben ; by whom, or on whose account, it was placed, either as a sepulchral stone, he being buried there, or in memory of some famous exploit done by him there, he being one of those of the tribe of Reuben, that came with Joshua to assist in the war against the Canaanites; or it was set for a sign of the border, as Kimchi thinks, it being the boundary between Judah and Benjamin, ( Joshua 18:17). Bunting says it is near Bahurim, in the valley just in the king’s way, and is of an extraordinary greatness, shining like marble.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 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 portio assigned. In due time all God's people are settled.
