<strong>Keil</strong> and <strong>Delitzsch</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>Commentary</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> the Old Testament<br />
<br />
Shiloh , according to the Onom. , was twelve Roman miles or five hours to the south<br />
of Neapolis (Nablus), and about eight hours to the north of Jerusalem; at present it is<br />
a heap of ruins, bearing the name of Seilun (see Rob.<br />
iii. p. 85). The tabernacle c<strong>on</strong>tinued standing at Shiloh during the time of the judges,<br />
until the ark of the covenant fell into the hands of the Philistines, in the lifetime of<br />
Eli, when the holy tent was robbed of its soul, and reduced to the mere shadow of a<br />
sanctuary. After this it was removed to Nob (1 Sam 21:2); but in c<strong>on</strong>sequence of the<br />
massacre inflicted by Saul up<strong>on</strong> the inhabitants of this place (1 Sam 22:19), it was<br />
taken to Gibe<strong>on</strong> (1 Kings 3:4: see <strong>Keil</strong> , Bibl. Arch. i. §22). From this time forward<br />
Shilloh c<strong>on</strong>tinued to decline, because the Lord had rejected it (Ps 78:60; Jer 7:12;<br />
26:6). That it was destroyed by the Assyrians, as Knobel affirms, is not stated in the<br />
history.<br />
<strong>Joshua</strong> 18:2-10<br />
And there remained am<strong>on</strong>g the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet<br />
received their inheritance.<br />
Survey of the Land that had yet to be Divided. - V. 2. After the tabernacle had been<br />
set up, the casting of the lots and divisi<strong>on</strong> of the land am<strong>on</strong>g the other seven tribes<br />
were to be c<strong>on</strong>tinued; namely at Shiloh, to which the c<strong>on</strong>gregati<strong>on</strong> had removed with<br />
the sanctuary.<br />
Verse 3-4. But, for the reas<strong>on</strong>s explained in Josh 14:1, these tribes showed<br />
themselves "slack to go to possess the land which the Lord had given them," i.e., not<br />
merely to c<strong>on</strong>quer it, but to have it divided by lot, and to enter in and take possessi<strong>on</strong>.<br />
<strong>Joshua</strong> charged them with this, and directed them to appoint three men for each of the<br />
seven tribes, that they might be sent out to go through the land, and describe it<br />
according to the measure of their inheritance. "According to their inheritance," i.e.,<br />
with special reference to the fact that seven tribes were to receive it for their<br />
inheritance. The descripti<strong>on</strong> was not a formal measurement, although the art of<br />
