Contextual Overview

40 The seventh lot came out to the tribe of the children of Dan by their families 41 And the border of their possession was Saraa and Esthaol, and Hirsemes, that is, the city of the sun, 42 Selebin and Aialon and Jethela, 43 Elon and Themna and Acron, 44 Elthece, Gebbethon and Balaath, 45 And Juda and Bane and Barach and Gethremmon: 46 And Mejarcon and Arecon, with the border that looketh towards Joppe, 47 And is terminated there. And the children of Dan went up and fought against Lesem, and took it: and they put it to the sword, and possessed it, and dwelt in it, calling the name of it Lesem Dan, by the name of Dan their father. 48 This is the possession of the tribe of the sons of Dan, by their kindreds, the cities and their villages.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Eltekeh,.... Eltekeh was a city given to the Levites,

Joshua 21:23; and supposed by some to be the same with Eltekon in the tribe of Judah given to the Danites, Joshua 15:59;

and Gibbethon was in the hands of the Philistines in the reign of Asa,

1 Kings 15:21; and in the same place Jerom t calls Gabatha a city of the strangers, or Philistines; and which lie places near Bethlehem in the tribe of Judah;

and Baalath is not the same with Baalah, Joshua 15:29; but the Baalath rebuilt by Solomon, 1 Kings 9:18; called by Josephus u Baleth, and spoken of by him as near to Gazara in the land of the Philistines; of these two last cities, the Talmudists w say that their houses belonged to Judah, and their fields to Dan.
