Matthew Poole and continuators on Joshua 11:17

17 Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir , unto Baal-Gad , in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.

i. e. To the country of Seir or Edom; to wit, that part of it which was South from Iudea, not that which was Eastward from it, as appears from hence, that here, as also Ios. 12. 7. is mention of the two extream bounds of the Land conquered by Ioshua; whereof the other which follows being in the North, this must needs be in the South of the Land.

A part of Mount Lebanon.
