Commentary on Joshua 15:622 voices
And Nibshan,.... Of Nibshan no mention is made elsewhere: and the city of Salt some take to be Zoar, so called because near the salt sea, or where Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt, Gen 19:22; but rather this city might be so called, because salt was made here. and Engedi, or Engaddi, is a well known place, near the salt sea; See Gill on Eze 47:
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The city of Salt - Or of Melach. This city was somewhere in the vicinity of the lake Asphaltites, the waters of which are the saltest perhaps in the world. The whole country abounds with salt: see the note on Gen 19:25. Some suppose that it is the same as Zoar, the place to which Lot escaped after the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. En-gedi - The well of the kid: it was situated between Jericho and the lake of Sodom or Dead Sea.
