Dict: easton - Stream of Egypt



easton:



Stream of Egypt @ kjv@Isaiah:27:12), the Wady el-'Arish, called also "the river of Egypt," R.V., "brook of Egypt" kjv@Numbers:34:5; kjv@Joshua:15:4; kjv@2Kings:24:7). It is the natural boundary of Egypt. Occasionally in winter, when heavy rains have fallen among the mountains inland, it becomes a turbulent rushing torrent. The present boundary between Egypt and Palestine is about midway between el-'Arish and Gaza.
