יהושע, פרק י״ט, פסוק כ״ט

The territorial boundaries of the tribe of Asher form a precise perimeter, tracing key landmarks across all four directions before finally meeting the Mediterranean Sea. The boundary begins its shift at a northeastern peak near Great Sidon, turning southward to trace the eastern edge of Asher's land until it reaches Ramah [מצודת דוד, מלבי״ם].

Moving onward, the line extends to a powerful, fortified city built upon a high, rocky mountain. This stronghold marks the southeastern corner of the territory, even though the city itself actually belonged to the neighboring tribe of Naphtali [מלבי״ם]. The primary approach among commentators is that this location was a strong, elevated mountain fortress. It was not the famous coastal city of Tyre, as that major port had not yet been built during this period; rather, it was a rocky fortress located further inland [מלבי״ם].

From this eastern outpost, the boundary changes course once more, turning westward toward the city of Hosah [מצודת דוד, מלבי״ם]. Continuing its path, the border runs through the coastal region of Achziv in the Upper Galilee, ultimately coming to an end at the Mediterranean Sea [רש״י, מצודת דוד, ביאור שטיינזלץ]. With this final stretch reaching the coast, the complete perimeter of Asher's tribal inheritance is fully established on all sides [מלבי״ם].
