Judah Upon Jordan

From BibleEncyclopedia.Net

The KJV, following the Vulgate, has this rendering in Jos_19:34. It has been suggested that, following the Masoretic punctuation, the expression should read thus, “and Judah; the Jordan was toward the sun-rising.” The sixty cities (Havothjair, Num_32:41) on the east of Jordan were reckoned as belonging to Judah, because Jair, their founder, was a Manassite only on his mother's side, but on his father's side of the tribe of Judah (1Ch_2:5, 1Ch_2:21-23).
