"But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for his possession."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
But the fields of the city, and the villages thereof,.... Which lay beyond the two thousand cubits: gave they to Caleb the son of Jephunneh, for his possession; as Moses
had promised, and Joshua had confirmed to him; and now the children of Israel gave them to him, and put him in the possession of, Jos 14:6 ; and the same is to be observed of all the other cities given to the Levites, that they and their suburbs, extending to such a distance only, were given to them; but the fields and villages, which belonged to them, continued the inheritance of the tribes in which they were.
