At place there of graves— An illustrious place for sepulchre; the valley of passengers, opposite to the sea; through which the travellers shall pass stopping their noses. Houbigant. According to the Chaldee, the sea here spoken of was that of Gennezareth. The valley near this lake or sea is called the valley of the passengers, because it was a great road, by which the merchants and traders from Syria, and other eastern countries, went into Egypt. See Genesis 37:17; Genesis 37:25 and Calmet.
