John Gill Commentary Ezekiel 47:18

"And the east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the [north] border unto the east sea shall ye measure. This is the east side." — Ezekiel 47:18 (ASV)

And the east side you shall measure Hauran
The line of the eastern border of the land shall begin at Hauran or Auranitis; see (Ezekiel 47:16), which lay to the south ^F19 of Damascus: and it follows, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border unto the east
sea ;
and so from Damascus, the metropolis of Syria; and likewise from Gilead, a mountain and country beyond Jordan; and also from that part of the land of Israel near to Jordan; and so from the northern border to the east sea, or sea of Galilee or Tiberias: and this is the east side :
of the land, or the eastern border of it, reaching from Hauran to the lake of Gennesaret, or to the Salt sea, the sea of Sodom; see (Numbers 34:10–12).
