JOSHUA 19:6. Sharuhen is interesting as the city to which the Hyksos (pp. 52, 54) or Semitic Shepherd Kings fled when they were driven out of Egypt, and where they are said to have been besieged for six years (Driver, _Exodus_, p. xliii)....

The Inheritance of the Tribe of Dan 40. _the seventh lot_ came out to the smallest of all the tribes, that of Dan, descended from the fifth son of Jacob. The position of the tribe during the march through the wilderness had been on the north side of the Tabernacle, the hindmost of the long procession between Naphtali and Asher.
