Ezekiel48:28

28 And by the border of Gad, at the South side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar , unto the waters of strife in Kadesh, and to the river toward the great sea.

The South border of Gad.

Of the whole land Southward.

See chap. 4[illegible: 1 letter].1[illegible: 1 letter]. l[illegible: 1 letter]t. f. g. h. i.

[illegible: 1 word], say some, but if Si[illegible: 1 letter]or be [illegible: 1 word], as [illegible: 1 word] makes it, it cannot be the boundary, 'tis indeed a River, that ariseth, as some place it, out of the North part of the M[illegible: 1 letter]unt[illegible: 1 letter]ins of Para[illegible: 1 letter], and running a course West from its rise, passeth between G[illegible: 1 letter]r[illegible: 1 letter]r and R[illegible: 1 letter]ino c[illegible: 1 letter]r[illegible: 1 letter]va, and after some 23 or 30 miles travel falls into the great Sea, better known in Scripture by the Name of the River of Egypt. But possibly, the true Rise may be from mount Carmel and Gozen whence it may be some forty miles English to the great Sea.
