This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Which were left, over and above the priests who were of the same family of Kohath and tribe of Levi.
By lot, ten cities, or, by lot (with a full point, for there the sense ends).
All their cities were ten cities, as it is expressly said, Jos_21:6. These words, all their cities were, are to be understood out of the former verse; which is not unusual in the Holy Scripture. And so this sacred writer explains himself, 1Ch_6:66, &c., where eight of these cities are named, whereof only two are taken out of this half tribe of Manasseh, 1Ch_6:70, the other two being named, Jos_21:21, &c., where these things are more plainly and fully declared.
