ETHER 6:31 [13:28]: And it came to pass that Coriantumr beat him, and did pursue him until he came to the plains of Heshlon.
Commentary: This verse references the places of the plains of Heshlon and the valley of Gilgal. The term 'him' refers to Shared. The pursuit started in the valley of Gilgal. The plains of Heshlon are near the valley of Gilgal.
ETHER 6:32 [13:29]: And it came to pass that Shared gave him battle again upon the plains; and behold he did beat Coriantumr, and drove him back again to the valley of Gilgal.
Commentary: This verse references the places of the plains of Heshlon and the valley of Gilgal. The term 'him' refers to Coriantumr. Shared drove Coriantumr back again to the valley of Gilgal. The term 'drove' implies a continual fight and not a retreat, indicating that the valley of Gilgal is probably next to the plains of Heshlon.
ETHER 6:49 [14:15]: And it came to pass that Lib did pursue him until he came to the plains of Agosh.
Commentary: This verse references the places of the plains of Agosh, the plains of Heshlon, the Sea West, and the wilderness of Akish. The term 'him' refers to Coriantumr. Lib pursued Coriantumr from the wilderness of Akish to the plains of Agosh. They were coming from the Sea West shore and through the wilderness of Akish, so this implies that the plains of Agosh are further east past the wilderness of Akish. At a minimum, the plains of Agosh were to the north of the wilderness of Akish. The plains of Agosh were not to the south of the wilderness of Akish since the following battles between Coriantumr and Shiz happened northward of the land of Moron, Nehor, and Heth. This would also put the plains of Agosh east of the plains of Heshlon.
