Kadesh-barnea is significant as a southern boundary of the Promised Land and a place where the Israelites previously rebelled against God (Numbers 13-14). Gaza, located in the southwest, was a major Philistine city, indicating the breadth of the conquest. This conquest fulfills God's promise to give Israel the land (<a href="/genesis/15-18.htm">Genesis 15:18-21</a>). The mention of these locations underscores the fulfillment of divine promises and the establishment of Israel's territorial claims.<p><b>and the whole region of Goshen as far as Gibeon</b><br>The region of Goshen here is not to be confused with the Goshen in Egypt. This Goshen is a district in southern Canaan, possibly a fertile area suitable for settlement. Gibeon, a significant city in the central hill country, was known for its treaty with Israel (Joshua 9). The inclusion of Gibeon in the conquest narrative emphasizes the strategic and comprehensive nature of Joshua's campaign. This phrase also reflects the unity and obedience of Israel under Joshua's leadership, contrasting with earlier disobedience in the wilderness. The conquest of these areas demonstrates God's faithfulness in delivering the land to Israel, as promised to Abraham and his descendants.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/joshua.htm">Joshua</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites who succeeded Moses.

Goshen has been thought to be the town of that name mentioned in <a href="/joshua/15-51.htm" title="And Goshen, and Holon, and Giloh; eleven cities with their villages:">Joshua 15:51</a>; but it is inconceivable that a single place of no importance in the mountains of Judah should give the name to an extensive district, which is manifestly intended here. If we knew the exact northern boundary of the land of Goshen assigned for a distinct residence to Joseph's brethren in Egypt, it might help to clear up the meaning of this passage. That Goshen, at its Egyptian end, bordered upon the Delta is clear. But how far did Goshen extend towards the north? In <a href="/context/1_chronicles/7-21.htm" title="And Zabad his son, and Shuthelah his son, and Ezer, and Elead, whom the men of Gath that were born in that land slew, because they came down to take away their cattle.">1Chronicles 7:21-22</a>, we find that Ephraim's children <span class= "ital">in his lifetime </span>made an incursion into Canaan as far as Gath. But this was during the time that Israel dwelt in the land of Goshen. Did they suppose that they were in the land of Goshen when they plundered the men of Gath? If Goshen (frontier) could be the general name for the <span class= "ital">border-land </span>between Egypt and Palestine, we can understand that the borders might vary with the power of the Egyptian monarchy for the time being. The country of Goshen, <span class= "ital">unto Gibeon, </span>seems to be described from south to north; Gibeon being intended as the northern boundary.<p><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/joshua/10-41.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Joshua</span><br /><span class="heb">יְהוֹשֻׁ֛עַ</span> <span class="translit">(yə·hō·wō·šu·a‘)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun -
