1 Chronicles 4:28 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 4:28

And they dwelt at Beersheba
posterity of Simeon; and this and the other places of their habitation are mentioned in the same order, and with very little variation of names to the end of ( 1 Chronicles 4:31 ) , as in ( Joshua 19:2-6 ) and here, at ( 1 Chronicles 4:31 ) it is added,

these were their cities unto the reign of David;
when, according to Kimchi, and other Jewish writers, he expelled them from thence, and restored them to the tribe of Judah.

1 Chronicles 4:28 In-Context

26 The sons of Mishma; Hamuel, his son; and Zacchur, his son; [and] Shimei, his son.
27 The sons of Shimei were sixteen, and six daughters; soothly his brethren had not many sons, and all the kindred might not be even to the sum of the sons of Judah. (And Shimei had sixteen sons, and six daughters; but his brothers did not have many children, and so all the kindred of Simeon was not equal to the number of people in the tribe of Judah.)
28 And they dwelled in Beersheba (And they lived in Beersheba), and in Moladah, and in Hazarshual,
29 and in Bilhah, and in Ezem, and in Tolad,
30 and in Bethuel, and in Hormah, and in Ziklag,
