Contextual Overview

¹ And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and called together all the house of Juda and of Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men and warriors, to fight against Israel, and to bring back his kingdom to him. ² And the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying: ³ Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon the king of Juda, and to all Israel, in Juda and Benjamin: ⁴ Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: let every man return to his own house, for by my will this thing has been done. And when they heard the word of the Lord, they returned, and did not go against Jeroboam, ⁵ And Roboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built walled cities in Juda. ⁶ And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Thecue, ⁷ And Bethsur, and Socho, and Odollam, ⁸ And Geth, and Maresa, and Ziph, ⁹ And Aduram, and Lachis, and Azecha, ¹⁰ Saraa also, and Aialon, and Hebron, which are in Juda and Benjamin, well fenced cities.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Adoraim,.... Called by Josephus d Adora, which he mentions along with Mareshah, or Marissa:

and Lachish: a royal city in the time of the Canaanites, and which fell to the lot of Judah, Joshua 12:11,

and Azekah; a city situated in the plain of Judah, Joshua 10:10.

d Antiqu. l. 13. c. 9. sect. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The site of Adoraim is uncertain. For Lachish, see Joshua 10:3; Azekah, Joshua 10:10; Zorah, Joshua 15:33; Aijalon, Joshua 10:12; Hebron, Joshua 14:15. No one of the cities was really within the limits of the tribe of Benjamin. The writer uses the phrase “Judah and Benjamin” merely as the common designation of the southern kingdom (compare 2 Chronicles 11:12 and 2 Chronicles 11:23).
