Gill's Notes on the Bible
Anathoth with her suburbs,.... This is not mentioned among the cities of Benjamin, Joshua 18:11; it was the native place of the Prophet Jeremiah, Joshua 18:11- :; it lay about two or three miles north of Jerusalem; three, says, Jerom k. Rauwolff l speaks of it as a small village, when he travelled into those parts, and as lying on a height or eminence, and which was within twenty furlongs of Jerusalem, as Josephus writes m:
and Almon with her suburbs; this also is not mentioned among the cities of Benjamin, Joshua 18:11; it is called Alemeth, 1 Chronicles 6:60. Jarchi and Kimchi say it is the same with Bahurim, 2 Samuel 3:16; where the Targum renders it by Almeth, and both words signify the same thing, "youth":
four cities; which were a large number for so small a tribe as little Benjamin to give.
k De loc. Heb. fol. 88. H. l Travels, par. 3. c. 2. p. 216. m Antiqu. l. 10. c. 7. sect. 3.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The thirteen priestly cities (see the marginal references) were all in the tribes of Judah, Simeon, and Benjamin. Thus, as Calvin remarks, God so overruled it that the priestly families were placed upon the spot which He had determined before hand to choose as the site of His temple.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 21:18. Anathoth. — Celebrated as the birthplace of Jeremiah, about three miles northward of Jerusalem, according to St. Jerome.
