Joshua 19:36 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 19:36

And Adamah
Adamah is different from Adami, ( Joshua 19:33 ) ; and may seem to confirm the notion of some, that Nekeb there is an epithet of it, and so distinguishes it from Adamah here;

and Ramah;
of Ramah, as there were several places of this name, (See Gill on Joshua 19:29);

and Hazor was a royal city, of which, (See Gill on Joshua 11:1).
