Role in This Section

Joshua 19:45 contributes this concrete line to the movement: “And Jehud, and Bene-berak, and Gath-rimmon,”.

Read It With

  • Joshua 19:40–48

Read Joshua 19:45 with 19:40–48. Joshua 19:45 advances “Dan's Allotment Expands through the Capture of Leshem” with the textual step “And Jehud, and Bene-berak, and Gath-rimmon,”. The complete unit establishes this movement: Dan's lot lists lowland towns but then reports failure to hold its territory, a northern attack on Leshem, killing by the sword, occupation, and renaming the city Dan.

Why It Needs Context

Joshua 19:45 advances “Dan's Allotment Expands through the Capture of Leshem” with the textual step “And Jehud, and Bene-berak, and Gath-rimmon,”. Its contribution depends on the names, boundary sequence, allotment logic, and closing qualification in Joshua 19:40-48; isolated teaching would turn one list item into a claim it does not make.
