Ezekiel47:15

15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north-side , from the great sea , the way of Hethlon , as men go to Zedad :

In bounding the Land, the Prophet is informed what is the North border first.

This called so, not that 'tis the greatest, for 'tis the Mediterrane here spoken of, but with respect to the Iews; this to them was the greatest they knew, or Traded on, from this Sea doth the measuring of the Land begin, from the West point along to Hethlon.

Which is called Hethalon by Adrichmius, in the Tribe of Asher, at the foot, or near the Mount Hermon or Senir, as chap. 27.5. calls that Mount: This City was in the North-East of Asher's lot, and on the North-West of Nephthali's lot, in the old division of the Land.

Which is Sedada a small Town under the same Hill, and near the head of the River Eleutherus, antiently Gebat.
