SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:37

Zenán, y Hadasa, y Migdal-gad,

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 37. Zenan , etc.] Here begins another list or catalogue of the cities in the valley or plain. Zenan perhaps is the same with Zaanan, ( Micah 1:11); and Hadashah was so small a city in Judea in the times of the Misnic doctors, that they say it had but fifty dwellings in it; and Jerom speaks of a place called Adasa, in the tribe of Judah, in his times a village near Guphua; it should be Taphna; and Migdalgad , of which we nowhere else read; some think it had its name from some famous exploit done here by one of the tribe of Gad, who came over with Joshua to assist in the war, as the stone of Bohan the Reubenite, ( Joshua 15:6).

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 __________________________________________________________________
