Asher. This refers to the fruitful soil that was to be Asher’s future region of abode. In fulfillment of this prediction Asher received as his inheritance the lowlands of Canaan on the Mediterranean, as far as the territory of Tyre. This is one of the most fertile parts of Canaan, abounding in wheat and oil, with which Solomon supplied the household of King Hiram (1 Kings 5:11).
