John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 48. And in the mountains , etc.] The hill country of Judea, as it is called ( Luke 1:39,65), in which were the following cities: Shamir : the Alexandrian copy of the Greek version reads Sophir as the name, of the first of these cities; and Jerom says there was a village of this name in the mountainous parts, situated between Eleutheropolis, and Ashkelon in the tribe of Judah; (see Micah 1:11); and Jattir the same writer calls Jether, in the tribe of Judah; and says f358 there was in his time a very large village called Jethira, twenty miles from Eleutheropolis, the inhabitants of which were then all Christians: it was situated in interior Daroma, near Malatha; and Socoh is different from Socoh in ( Joshua 15:35); that was in the plain, this in the mountain; (see Gill on “ Joshua 15:35”).

Matthew Henry Commentary
