The Jordan River served as a significant boundary in ancient Israel, separating the land of Canaan from the territories east of the river. The eastward direction signifies the Transjordan region, which was historically significant for the tribes of Israel that settled there. This area was often contested and had strategic importance due to its fertile land and trade routes.through all the land of Gilead Gilead was a mountainous region east of the Jordan River, known for its balm, a valuable resin used for medicinal purposes. It was a territory that held historical significance for the Israelites, as it was part of the land allocated to the tribes of Gad, Reuben, and the half-tribe of Manasseh. Gilead was often a site of conflict due to its location and resources, and it played a role in various biblical narratives, including the story of Jephthah in Judges.(the region of Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh) These tribes were among the twelve tribes of Israel and were granted land on the east side of the Jordan River. The tribes of Gad and Reuben, along with the half-tribe of Manasseh, requested this land from Moses because it was suitable for their large herds and flocks. This allocation is detailed in <a href="/numbers/32.htm">Numbers 32</a>. Their settlement in this region fulfilled part of the promise given to the patriarchs regarding the land their descendants would inherit.and from Aroer by the Arnon Valley Aroer was a city located near the Arnon River, which served as a boundary between Moab and the Amorite kingdom. The Arnon Valley was a significant geographical marker in the region. Aroer’s mention highlights the extent of the territory being described, emphasizing the control over strategic locations. The Arnon River itself is mentioned in several biblical passages as a border, such as in <a href="/deuteronomy/3-12.htm">Deuteronomy 3:12</a>.through Gilead to Bashan Bashan was a fertile region north of Gilead, known for its rich pastures and strong cattle. It was ruled by King Og, one of the last of the Rephaim, whom the Israelites defeated as they took possession of the land (<a href="/deuteronomy/3.htm">Deuteronomy 3:1-11</a>).

It was the land east of the Jordan, that is to say, all the land of Gilead, which was the territory of Reuben, Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh.From Aroer.--Aroer, now 'Ara'ir, on the Arnon, was the southern limit of Gilead, which extended northward to Mount Hermon, and included Bashan. "Even (both) Gilead and Bashan," is added to make it clear that the whole of the land east of the Jordan, and not merely Gilead in the narrower sense, was conquered by Hazael. These conquests of Hazael were characterised by great barbarity. (Comp. <a href="/context/amos/1-3.htm" title="Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:">Amos 1:3-5</a>, and Elisha's prediction of the same, <a href="/2_kings/8-12.htm" title="And Hazael said, Why weeps my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel: their strong holds will you set on fire, and their young men will you slay with the sword, and will dash their children, and rip up their women with child.">2Kings 8:12</a>, supra.) Ewald thinks Hazael took advantage of the internal troubles at the outset of the reign to effect his conquests. But a man of Jehu's energy must soon have established domestic tranquillity.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/2_kings/10.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 33. - From Jordan eastward. The territory west of the Jordan was not attacked at this time. Hazael's expeditious were directed against the trans-Jordanic region, the seats of the three tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh. This tract was far easier of access than the other, and was more tempting, being the richest part of Palestine. The region comprised all the land of Gilead - i.e. the more southern region, reaching from the borders of Moab on the south to the Hieromax or Sheriat-el-Mandhur upon the north, the proper land of the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and [a portion of] the Manassites - together with Bashan, the more northern region, which belonged wholly to Manasseh - from Aroer (now Arair), which is by the river Arnon - the Wady-el-Mojeb, which was the boundary between Israel and Moab (<a href="/numbers/21-13.htm">Numbers 21:13, 24</a>), both in the earlier and (<a href="/isaiah/16-2.htm">Isaiah 16:2</a>) in the later times - even Gilead and Bashan. There is other evidence, besides this, that Hazael was one of the most warlike of the Syrian kings. We find him, on the Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser II., mentioned as a stubborn adversary of the Assyrian arms. In the seventeenth campaign of Shalmaneser, a great battle was fought between the two monarchs. Hazael brought into the field more than twelve hundred chariots, but was defeated, and obliged to retreat, his camp falling into the hands of the enemy ('Records of the Past,' vol. 5. p. 84). Four years later Shalmaneser invaded Hazael's territory, and took, according to his own account (ibid., p. 35), four cities or fortresses belonging to him. He does not claim, however, to have made him a tributary; and By his later annals it is evident that he avoided further contest, preferring to turn his arms in other directions.
