Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 15:24

Verse 24. Ziph] There were two cities of this name in the tribe of Judah, that mentioned here, and another ver. 55. One of these two is noted for the refuge of David when persecuted by Saul; and the attempts made by its inhabitants to deliver him into the hands of his persecutor. See 1 Sam. xxiii. 14- 24.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 24. Ziph , etc.] Ziph was of the tribe of Judah in the south, on the borders of Eleutheropolis, as Jerom says and was eight miles from Hebron to the east; and in his time a village was shown, where David was hid; but that Ziph seems to be in another part of this tribe near Carmel, and from whence a wilderness had its name; (see Joshua 15:55) ( Samuel 23:14); and Telem is supposed to be the same with Telaim, ( 1 Samuel 15:4); and Bealoth ; of this city we read nowhere else.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 20-63 - Here is a list of the cities of Judah. But we do not here fin Bethlehem, afterwards the city of David, and ennobled by the birth of our Lord Jesus in it. That city, which, at the best, was but littl among the thousands of Judah, Mic 5:2, except that it was thu honoured, was now so little as not to be accounted one of the cities __________________________________________________________________
