Contextual Overview

¹ When Rehobo'am came to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah, and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight against Israel, to restore the kingdom to Rehobo'am. ² But the word of the LORD came to Shemai'ah the man of God: ³ "Say to Rehobo'am the son of Solomon king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, ⁴ 'Thus says the LORD, You shall not go up or fight against your brethren. Return every man to his home, for this thing is from me.'" So they hearkened to the word of the LORD, and returned and did not go against Jerobo'am. ⁵ Rehobo'am dwelt in Jerusalem, and he built cities for defense in Judah. ⁶ He built Bethlehem, Etam, Teko'a, ⁷ Beth-zur, Soco, Adullam, ⁸ Gath, Mare'shah, Ziph, ⁹ Adora'im, Lachish, Aze'kah, ¹⁰ Zorah, Ai'jalon, and Hebron, fortified cities which are in Judah and in Benjamin.

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).
