Joshua 21:34 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 21:34

And unto the families of the children of Merari, the rest of
the Levites
The descendants of the youngest son of Levi, who were all that remained of the Levites unprovided of cities: out of the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam with her suburbs;
which lay near Carmel, and was a royal city; (See Gill on Joshua 12:22); and Kartah with her suburbs;
perhaps the same with Kattath, ( Joshua 19:15 ) .
