Contextual Overview

40 The seventh part of the land was given to the tribe of Dan. Each family group of Dan received some of the land. 41 Their land included Zorah, Eshtaol, Ir Shemesh, 42 Shaalabbin, Aijalon, Ithlah, 43 Elon, Timnah, Ekron, 44 Eltekeh, Gibbethon, Baalath, 45 Jehud, Bene Berak, Gath Rimmon, 46 Me Jarkon, Rakkon, and the area near Joppa. 47 (But the Danites had trouble taking their land. They went and fought against Leshem, defeated it, and killed the people who lived there. So the Danites moved into the town of Leshem and changed its name to Dan, because he was the father of their tribe.) 48 All of these towns and villages were given to the family groups of Dan.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Thimnathah: Genesis 38:12, Judges 14:1, Judges 14:2, Timnath

Ekron: Ekron is placed by Eusebius between Ashdod and Jamnia, eastward; and probably the ruined village of Tookrair, mentioned by Dr. Richarson, situated on the top of a hill, and which he says seems to have been a place of considerable consequence, occupies its site. Joshua 15:45, 1 Samuel 5:10, Amos 1:8

Reciprocal: Joshua 15:11 - Ekron

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Elon,.... Of Elon no mention is made elsewhere;

and Thimnathah is a different place from Timnah in the tribe of Judah,

Joshua 15:10. Jerom s speaks of the Thamnitic country, so called from the village Thamna, which seems to be this;

and Ekron was one of the five principalities of the Philistines, and never possessed by the Israelites; it first fell by lot to the tribe of Judah, and afterwards given to the tribe of Dan, Joshua 15:45.

s De loc. Heb. fol. 88. E.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 43. Thimnathah — Probably the same as Timnah. Joshua 15:57.

Ekron — A well-known city of the Philistines and the metropolis of one of their five dynasties,
