And their villages were Etam, and Ain, Rimmon, and Tochen,
and Ashan, five cities.
] There are but four mentioned in ( Joshua 19:7 ) one might be added since, or new built, namely, Tochen; these, according to Kimchi, were all that remained for them to dwell in, in the times of David; and therefore they were obliged to seek out for new settlements for themselves and flocks, as in ( 1 Chronicles 4:39 )
