1 Chronicles 6:57-60

6:57

refuge <04733> [the city of refuge.]

Libnah <03841> [Libnah.]

Jattir <03492> [Jattir.]

6:58

Hilez <02432> [Hilen.]

[This variation simply arises from the introduction of a [Y“wd]]

{yood}, and a change of the vowel points; Holon being written [Ch“l“wn <\\See definition 02473\\>,] and Hilen [ChŒyn <\\See definition 02432\\>.]

[Holon. Debir.]

6:59

Ashan <06228> [Ashan.]

It is probable that either Ain, in Joshua, is a mistake for Ashan, or that it was called by both names.

[Ain. Beth-shemesh.]

6:60

Geba <01387> [Geba.]

Alemeth <05964> [Alemeth.]

<\\See definition 05964\\>.

[Almon. Anathoth.]

thirteen cities <05892 07969> [thirteen cities.]

Here there are only eleven enumerated; but two more are added in the book of Joshua, Juttah and Gibeon, which make thirteen. None of the versions give the full number of names, though they all give the whole sum of thirteen; and it is probable that these two cities had been destroyed and lay in ruins when this book was written, and hence were not enumerated.
