Historical Commentaries

Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

Beth-horon - There were two cities of this name, the upper and the nether; but which is intended here, cannot be ascertained.

And Kibzaim with her suburbs,.... Which seems to, be the same with Jokneam, 1-Chronicles 6:68; of it we read nowhere else:
and Bethhoron with her suburbs; upper Bethhoron, for there were two, an upper and a nether: see Joshua 16:3,
four cities; as mentioned by name.
