VERSE 1
- Bashan.
Bashan, one of the most fertile districts of the Holy Land,
was bounded on the west by the Jordan and lake of Gennesareth,
on the east by Trachonitis, on the south by the brook Jabbok,
and on the north by mount Hermon; and seems to have been
composed of two or three districts, on the south the land of
Gilead, on the north the region of Argob, and east of both,
the plain of Hauran. (See ver. 13-15.) The scenery of this
elevated tract is described by Mr. Buckingham as extremely
beautiful: its plains covered with a fertile soil; its hills
covered with forests, and at every new turn presenting the
most beautiful landscapes that can be imagined.

Mount Hermon is the south-eastern branch of Lebanon, beyond
Jordan. The Chaldee Targumist, who places it at C'sarea and
Samaritan interpreter call it {toor talga,} "the mountain of
snow," because of its being always covered with snow; and
Jerome informs us, that it lies higher than Paneas or C'sarea
Philippi, and that in the summer time snow used to be carried
from thence to Tyre. It is now call El Heish, and is
comprised in the district of Kanneytra.

* Nu 32:39-42 Jos 13:29-32 1Ch 5:23-26

Michaelis says, "The tradition that giants formerly dwelt in
this part, still remains in Arabia, only that it makes them
rather taller than Moses does Og, and calls the land in which
they lived, not Bashan, but Hadrach, which name occurs in
Zec 9:1. I received this information from the verbal
communication of a credible Arab, who was born on the other
side of Jordan, about three-days journey from Damascus."

- Lebanon.
Lebanon is a long chain of limestone mountains, extending from
near the coast of the Mediterranean on the west to the plains
of Damascus on the east, and forming the extreme northern
boundary of the Holy Land. It is divided into two principal
ridges, running parallel to each other in a north-north-east
direction; the most westerly of which was properly called
Libanus, and the easterly Anti-Libanus: the Hebrews did not
make this distinction. It is computed to be fifteen or
sixteen hundred fathoms in height. They are by no means
barren, but are almost all well cultivated and well peopled;
their summits being in many parts level, and forming extensive
plains, in which are sown corn and all kinds of pulse.
Vineyards, and plantations of olive, mulberry, and fig trees,
are also cultivated in terraces formed by walls; and the soil
of the slopes and hollows is most excellent, and produces
abundance of corn, oil, and wine.
VERSE 26
