Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

1 Chronicles 4:28

II. — THE SEATS OF THE SIMEONITES UNTIL THE REIGN OF DAVID (1 Chronicles 4:28).

This list is parallel to Joshua 19:2. There are some variations, partly accidental.

(28) Beer-sheba, and Moladah, and Hazar-shual. — Joshua 19:2 adds Sheba after Beer-sheba — an obviously mistaken repetition, making fourteen towns in all, whereas 1 Chronicles 4:6 concludes, “thirteen cities and their villages.” Beer-sheba is Bir-esseba; Moladah, Tel-Milh, south of Hebron; Hazar-shual (fox-village) is unknown.
