Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And their possessions and habitations,.... That is, of the sons of Ephraim, when come into the land of Canaan: were Bethel, and the towns thereof; the villages belonging to it,

which was formerly called Luz, and was the border of Ephraim, Jos 16:7 . and eastward Naaran: the same with Naarath, Jos 16:7 . and westward Gezer, with the towns thereof; of which see Jos 16:3 , and Shechem also, and the towns thereof; which was a city of refuge in Mount Ephraim, Jos 20:7 unto Gaza, and the towns thereof; not Gaza, a city of the Philistines, for the tribe of Ephraim did not reach so far; the Targum calls it Aiah; it may be read Adaza, as in the margin of our Bibles.
