John Gill Commentary Joshua 15:4

"and it passed along to Azmon, and went out at the brook of Egypt; and the goings out of the border were at the sea: this shall be your south border." — Joshua 15:4 (ASV)

[From thence] it passed towards Azmon, and went out unto the
river of Egypt
In like manner is this coast described, (Numbers 34:5) ; it is called by Jerom ^F24 Asemona, and said to be a city in the desert, to the south of Judah, dividing Egypt, and the lot of the tribe of Judah, leading to the sea:

and the outgoings of that coast were at the sea ;
the Mediterranean sea; or to the west, as the Targum; this was the utmost border of the tribe of Judah this way:

this shall be your south coast ;
of the lot that fell to the tribe of Judah.
