65:10 Sharon was a fertile and beautiful marshy region southwest of Mount Carmel (see 33:9). The valley of Achor in the vicinity of Jericho was associated with the curse on Achan (Josh 7:24-26); it would be transformed into a place of blessing (Hos 2:15). These western and eastern regions might represent the renewal of the whole land.
