the dividing line[a] for the heritage of the Ephraimites by their clans ran from east of Ataroth-addar to Upper Beth-horon(A) and thence to the sea. From Michmethath(B) on the north, their boundary curved eastward around Taanath-shiloh, and continued east of it to Janoah; from there it descended to Ataroth and Naarah, and reaching Jericho, it ended at the Jordan.
