Matthew Henry's Commentary on Joshua 19:16
Commentary on Joshua 19:10-16
(Read Joshua 19:10-16)
In the division to each tribe of Israel, the prophetic blessings of Jacob were fulfilled. They chose for themselves, or it was divided to them by lot, in the manner and places that he foresaw. So sure a rule to go by is the word of prophecy: we see by it what to believe, and it proves beyond all dispute the things that are of God.
