This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Num_13:22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, [were]. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
Ver. 22. Was built seven years before Zoan.] And so was one of the ancientest cities of the world, seeing it did contend with the ancientest and chiefest city of Egypt. {Isa_19:11} Hebron signifies an association: there lay buried those three reverend couples, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, Jacob and Leah. {Gen_23:19; Gen_35:27-29} Here David began his reign over Israel, {2Sa_2:1} and hither came Mary to visit Elizabeth. {Luk_1:39}
