The town of Ashdod together with its towns and villages, and the town of Gaza together with its towns and villages also belonged to the people of Judah
They also received Ashdod and Gaza, and the towns and villages that were near them
as far as the Brook of Egypt and the coastline of the Great Sea.
They also had the places south along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, up to the Brook of Egypt.
This area reached south along the Mediterranean Sea to the river at the border of Egypt.
as far as the Brook of Egypt and the coastline of the Great Sea: The phrase Brook of Egypt occurred in Joshua 15:4, and you translate it the same way in both places.
the Great Sea: The phrase Great Sea refers to the Mediterranean Sea. This indicates that all the towns and villages near Ashdod and Gaza, and along the shore of the Mediterranean south to the Brook of Egypt, belonged to the people of Judah.

and all the places southward along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea to the Brook of Egypt
