2 Chronicles 11:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 11:10

And Zorah
The same with Zoreah, ( Joshua 15:33 ) ,

and Aijalon;
there was a city of the tribe of Dan of this name, in the valley of which the moon stood still in the times of Joshua, ( Joshua 10:12 ) ( 19:42 ) , but whether the same with this, and now belonging to Judah, or another of the same name, is not certain:

and Hebron;
a city in the mountainous part of Judah, and a city of refuge, about twenty miles from Jerusalem, ( Joshua 15:54 ) ( 20:7 ) ,

which are in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities;
as they were now made by Rehoboam.

2 Chronicles 11:10 In-Context

8 also and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph;
9 but also Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah;
10 and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which were in Judah and Benjamin, full strong cities (all well-fortified cities).
11 And when he had closed those with walls, he set princes in them, and barns of meats, that is, of oil, and of wine. (And when he had enclosed them with walls, he put leaders in them, and storehouses of food, and oil, and wine.)
12 But also in each city he made places of armours of shields, and spears, and he made those strong with most diligence; and he reigned on Judah and Benjamin. (And also in each city he made places for arms, or for weapons, that is, for shields and spears, and he fortified the cities with most diligence; and so he reigned upon Judah and Benjamin.)
