Joshua 15:30

And Eltolad
The first of these cities is called Tolad, ( 1 Chronicles 4:29 ) ;

and Chesil
seems to be the same with Bethul and Bethuel, ( Joshua 19:4 ) ( 1 Chronicles 4:30 ) ; and here the Greek version calls it Baithel;

and Hormah
is the same with Zephath, ( Judges 1:17 ) . All these three cities were given to the tribe of Simeon, ( Joshua 19:4 ) .
