A great deal of the land remains— Of the land I promised to Avrohom, much remains to be possessed [as an inheritance], for it has not been conquered.1And since you are old, you will not be able to do so in your lifetime.

Rashi

מן השיחור. הוא נילוס, הוא נחל מצרים, הוא סמוך לתחום מקצוע דרומית מערבית של ארץ ישראל, כמו שאמר באלה מסעי (במדבר לד ה), ולמדנו כאן שלא כבש יהושע בחייו כל מצר הדרומי אלא ממדבר צין, הוא ההר החלק העולה שעירה, עד הנילוס, הוא תחום עזה האמור למעלה מקדש ברנע עד עזה:

From Shichor. This is the Nile River, which is also referred to as the Egyptian brook. It is close to the southwestern border of Eretz Yisroel, as it is said in Parshas, “These are the journeys.”2Bamidbar 34:5. From here we learn that in Yehoshua’s lifetime, he did not conquer the entire southern border except from the wilderness of Tzin, which is synonymous with the bare, divided mountain3See above 11:17. that goes up to Seir; to the Nile. This is the boundry of Gaza mentioned above, “From Kodeish-Barneia to Gaza.4See above 10:41.

The Azites, the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites. There are six rulers counted in the verse and he previously called them five [rulers]. Said Rav Yochanan, “Five of them were prominent. There were five prominent rulers [that were counted], for the Avites were not counted among the prominent rulers.5Maseches Chulin 60b. It can be explained in an other way: The five Philistine rulers were: the Azites, the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites. These are the five [rulers mentioned]. The land of the Avites remained unconquered for they were not of the Philistine people.
