Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Kattath, and Nahallal,.... Of the two first of these we read nowhere else, but in Joshua 21:34;

and Shimron was a royal city, the king of which Joshua took and hanged, Joshua 11:1;

and Idalah is a place Bochart conjectures t where the goddess Venus was worshipped, Idalia being one of her names;

and Bethlehem is a different place from that which was the birthplace of our Lord, called Bethlehem of Judah, to distinguish it from this:

twelve cities with their villages; more are named, but some of them belonged to other tribes, and only lay on the borders of this; and others might not be properly cities, but small towns.

t Canaan, l. 1. c. 3. col. 356.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Twelve cities - Only five have been mentioned, and the names in the verses preceding are apparently not names of Zebulonite cities, but merely of points in or near the boundary line. It would therefore appear that seven names have disappeared from the text, and perhaps also the definition of the western frontier.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 19:15. Shimron — Joshua 12:20.

Beth-lehem — The house of bread; a different place from that in which our Lord was born.
