Joshua 15:56 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 15:56

And Jezreel
This Jezreel in the tribe of Judah is different from that which was once a royal seat of some of the kings of Israel, and from whence the famous valley of Jezreel or Esdraelon had its name: of this we have no other account elsewhere;

and Jokdeam;
of which we have no other mention;

and Zanoah
is a distinct place from the city of the same name in the valley, ( Joshua 15:34 ) .
