     * the clay ground.  Heb. the thickness of the ground.  Succoth.

     * Zarthan.
       Zarthan is supposed to have been situated in the tribe of
       Manasseh, west of Jordan, near Jezreel and Bethshan or
       Scythopolis, and not far from the Jordan.  Succoth we know was
       situated east of Jordan, in the tribe of Gad, and according to
       Jerome, in the district of Scythopolis:  hence the "plain of
       Jordan," where Hiram cast the brazen vessels, must be the
       plain in which that river runs, Zarthan and Succoth being
       probably nearly opposite each other; but whether the precise
       spot of his operations was on this side or the other side, is
       uncertain.  In this place he found that particular clay that
       was proper for his purpose; and it being a considerable
       distance from Jerusalem, that city would not be annoyed by the
       smoke and noxious vapours necessarily occasioned by the
       process.
