Judges 10:12
Sidonians <06722> [Zidonians.]
Amalek <06002> [Amalekites.]
Midian <04584> [the Maonites.]
The LXX. have "the Midianites," which Dr. Wall thinks the true reading. But the Maonites might be a tribe of Arabs, inhabitants of Maon. (Jos 15:55. 1Sa 23:24, 25; 25:2,) which assisted Moab.
Judges 18:7
Laish <03919> [Laish.]
[called Leshem. how they.]
conqueror <03423> [magistrate. Heb. possessor, or, heir of restraint.]
dealings <01697> [and had no.]
In the most correct copies of the LXX. this clause stands thus; [kai logos ouk en autois meta Syrias;] "and they had no transactions with Syria;" evidently reading instead of ['ƒdƒm <\\See definition 0120\\>] {adam,} man, ['Arƒm <\\See definition 0758\\>] {aram,} Syria; words so nearly similar that the only difference between them is in the [Rˆysh,] {raish,} and [Dƒleth,] daleth, which in both MSS. and printed books is sometimes indiscernible. Laish was situated on the frontiers of Syria.
Genesis 49:13
Joshua 11:8-13
Lord <03068> [the Lord.]
[great Zidon. or, Zidon-rabbah.]
Misrephoth <04956> [Misrephoth-maim. or, salt pits. Heb. burning of waters.]
hamstrung <06131> [he houghed.]
Hazor ........... Hazor <02674> [Hazor.]
breathed remained <05397 03498> [any left to breathe. Heb. any breath.]
royal cities ..... kings <05892 04428> [all the.]
Moses <04872> [as Moses.]
mounds <08510> [in their. Heb. on their heap.]
The Vulgate, Syriac, Onkelos and Waterland render {Æ’l tillom,} "on their hills." As the cities of the plain might be easily attacked and carried, Joshua destroyed them; but as those on mountains, hills, or other eminences, might be retained by him with little trouble, prudence would dictate their preservation.
Joshua 19:28
Rehob <07340> [Rehob.]
Kanah <07071> [Kanah.]
This seems a different Cana from that in Lower Galilee; and to be that which is placed in some maps east of Tyre, between Libanus and Antilibanus, and south of the river Cassimer, or Leitani.
[Cana. great.]
