Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Zorah: Situated on the frontiers of Dan and Judah, tens miles north from Eleutheropolis, towards Nicoplis, according to Eusebius, not far from Caphar Sorek. Joshua 15:33, Zoreah, Judges 13:2, Judges 13:25, Judges 16:31, Judges 18:2, 1 Chronicles 2:53, 2 Chronicles 11:10
Irshemesh: Supposed by some to be the same as Beth-shemesh in the tribe of Judah; but this latter city is evidently distinguished from it by being assigned by the tribe of Judah to the Levites - Joshua 21:16. Ir-shemesh rendered נןכיע בללבץע by the LXX, seems to be the same as Emmaus or Nicopolis, 22 miles south-east from Lydda, according to the Old Jerusalem Itinerary.
Reciprocal: Numbers 34:17 - are the names Nehemiah 11:29 - Zareah
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the coast of their inheritance was Zorah, and Eshtaol,.... The tribe of Dan is not described by places the boundaries of it, as other tribes, but by its cities, which were chiefly, at least several of them, taken out of the tribe of Judah, as the two first of these most manifestly were; :-;
and Irshemesh signifies the city of the sun, as the Targum interprets it, and was so called very probably from a temple in it, dedicated to the idolatrous worship of the sun, but a different place from Bethshemesh in other tribes; though those of that name, as this, had it for the like reason; and so Heliopolis, in Egypt, which signifies the same, where was a temple of the same kind; as there was another city of this name, between the mountains of Libanus and Antilibanus, now called Balbec p, where the ruins of the temple are yet to be seen: but this was a different place, the Septuagint version calls it Sammaus, and it was, according to Jerom q, the same with Emmaus, afterwards called Nicopolis; which, if the same Emmaus with that in Luke 24:13; though some doubt it, was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, or seven miles and a half.
p See Maundrell's Journey from Aleppo, &c. p. 120, 138. q Comment. in Ezek. xlviii. fol. 263. A.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 41. Zorah, and Eshtaol — Joshua 15:33.
Ir-shemesh — The city of sun; another proof of the idolatry of the Canaanites. Some think this was the same as Beth-shemesh.
