Joshua - 15:54 Meaning
“And Humtah, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, and Zior; nine cities with their villages:”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
15:20-63 Here is a list of the cities of Judah. But we do not here find Bethlehem, afterwards the city of David, and ennobled by the birth of our Lord Jesus in it. That city, which, at the best, was but little among the thousands of Judah, Mic 5:2, except that it was thus honoured, was now so little as not to be accounted one of the cities.
“And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.”
