Joshua 21:25 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 21:25

And out of the half tribe of Manasseh, Taanach with her
suburbs
Of which see ( Joshua 17:10 ) ; and Gathrimmon with her suburbs,
there was a city of this name in Dan, as in ( Joshua 21:24 ) ; nor was it unusual for cities to be called by the same name in different tribes: two cities;
these are called Aner and Bilean in ( 1 Chronicles 6:70 ) ; in process of time cities changed their names; two cities were a proper proportion for this half tribe; two more were given out of the other half tribe on the other side Jordan, as appears by what follows.

Joshua 21:25 In-Context

26 So these ten towns and the pastures around them were given to the rest of the Kohathite family groups.
27 The Gershonite family groups of the Levite tribe were given these towns: East Manasseh gave them Golan in Bashan, which was a city of safety, and Be Eshtarah, and the pastures around these two towns.
