Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Joshua 15:21-63
Jos 15:21-63. Cities of Judah.
21-63. the uttermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah--There is given a list of cities within the tribal territory of Judah, arranged in four divisions, corresponding to the districts of which it consisted--the cities in the southern part (Jos 15:21-32), those in the lowlands (Jos 15:33-47), those in the highlands (Jos 15:48-60), and those in the desert (Jos 15:61, 62). One gets the best idea of the relative situation of these cities by looking at the map.Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset & David Brown, 1871 · public domain
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Joshua 15:20-63
Here is a list of the cities of Judah. But we do not here find Bethlehem, afterwards the city of David, and ennobled by the birth of our Lord Jesus in it. That city, which, at the best, was but little among the thousands of Judah, Mi 5:2, except that it was thus honoured, was now so little as not to be accounted one of the cities.
