and Aphek; of which, :-;
and Rehob; of which, :-;
twenty and two cities with their villages: there are more set down in the account, but some of them did not belong to the tribe, only were on the border of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
These verses refer to the northern portion of the territory of Asher, on the Phoenician frontier. Some names may have dropped out of the text, the number Joshua 19:30 not tallying with the catalogue. Ramah still retains its ancient name, and lies about twelve miles southeast of Tyre. Achzib is the modern “Zib,†on the coast, eight or nine miles north of Acre.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 30. Twenty and two cities — There are nearly thirty cities in the above enumeration instead of twenty-two, but probably several are mentioned that were but frontier towns, and that did not belong to this tribe, their border only passing by such cities; and on this account, though they are named, yet they do not enter into the enumeration in this place. Perhaps some of the villages are named as well as the cities.
