Contextual Overview
20 The other Israelites, and the other priests and Levites, lived in all the towns of Judah. Everyone lived on the land that their ancestors had owned. 21 The Temple servants lived on the hill of Ophel. Ziha and Gishpa were in charge of the Temple servants. 22 The officer over the Levites in Jerusalem was Uzzi. Uzzi was the son of Bani (the son of Hashabiah, who was the son of Mattaniah, who was the son of Mica). Uzzi was a descendant of Asaph. Asaph's descendants were the singers who were responsible for the service in God's Temple. 23 The singers obeyed orders from the king, which told them what to do from day to day. 24 Pethahiah son of Meshezabel told the people what the king wanted done. (Meshezabel was one of the descendants of Zerah. Zerah was Judah's son.) 25 The people of Judah lived in these towns: In Kiriath Arba and the small towns around it, in Dibon and the small towns around it, in Jekabzeel and the small towns around it, 26 and in Jeshua, in Moladah, in Beth Pelet, 27 in Hazar Shual, in Beersheba and the small towns around it, 28 and in Ziklag, in Meconah and the small towns around it, 29 and in En Rimmon, in Zorah, in Jarmuth,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the residue of Israel, of the priests and the Levites,..... All of them, besides those that dwelt at Jerusalem: were
in all the cities of Judah, everyone in his inheritance; the Israelites in the cities, houses, and estates enjoyed by their ancestors, and the priests and Levites in the cities given out of the several tribes.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The returned community, though consisting mainly of members of the two tribes, represented the entire people of Israel. The ground, however, which they occupied, was not the whole land, but that which had constituted the kingdom of Judah.
