Twelve cities - Only five have been mentioned, and the names in the verses preceding are apparently not names of Zebulonite cities, but merely of points in or near the boundary line. It would therefore appear that seven names have disappeared from the text, and perhaps also the definition of the western frontier.

Poole: Jos 19:15 - -- Bethlehem not that where Christ was born, which was in Judah, thence called Bethlehem Judah Mat 2:1 , but another. Twelve cities: there are more n...

Bethlehem not that where Christ was born, which was in Judah, thence called

Bethlehem Judah Mat 2:1 , but another.

Twelve cities: there are more numbered here, but the rest either were not cities properly so called, having villages under their jurisdiction; or were not within this tribe, but only bordering upon it, and belonging to other tribes, which is evident of some of them, and may well be presumed of others.

Haydock: Jos 19:15 - -- Bethlehem, very different from that of Juda. --- Twelve. Nineteen are mentioned, but some of them belong to other tribes, (Calmet) or were not pro...

Bethlehem, very different from that of Juda. ---

Twelve. Nineteen are mentioned, but some of them belong to other tribes, (Calmet) or were not properly cities. (Menochius) ---

All the towns of Zabulon are not specified. (Calmet)

And Kattath, and Nahallal,.... Of the two first of these we read nowhere else, but in Jos 21:34,

and Shimron was a royal city, the king of which Joshua took and hanged, Jos 11:1,

and Idalah is a place Bochart conjectures t where the goddess Venus was worshipped, Idalia being one of her names:

and Bethlehem is a different place from that which was the birthplace of our Lord, called Bethlehem of Judah, to distinguish it from this:

twelve cities with their villages; more are named, but some of them belonged to other tribes, and only lay on the borders of this; and others might not be properly cities, but small towns.
