1 Chronicles 6:57-59

6:57 The descendants of Aaron were also allotted as cities of refuge Hebron, Libnah and its pasturelands, Jattir, Eshtemoa and its pasturelands, 6:58 Hilez and its pasturelands, Debir and its pasturelands, 6:59 Ashan and its pasturelands, and Beth Shemesh and its pasturelands.


tn The parallel account in Josh 21:13 has the singular “city,” which apparently refers only to Hebron.

tc The MT reads “Hilez” here; the place name appears as “Holon” in Josh 21:15.

tc The MT reads “Ashan” here; the place name appears as “Ain” in Josh 21:16.

tc The LXX and Syriac (following the parallel list in Josh 21:16) add “Juttah and its pasturelands” here. Cf. NAB “Jetta”; also NIV, NCV, NLT “Juttah.”
