John Gill's Bible Commentary Ver. 5. And Jair died, and was buried in Camon .] A city of Gilead, as Josephus calls it; Jerom f218 , under this word Camon, makes mention of a village in his times, called Cimana, in the large plain six miles from Legion to the north, as you go to Ptolemais; but, as Reland observes, this seems not to be the same place, but rather this is the Camon Polybius speaks of among other cities of Peraea, taken by Antiochus.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-5 - Quiet and peaceable reigns, though the best to live in, yield leas variety of matter to be spoken of. Such were the days of Tola and Jair They were humble, active, and useful men, rulers appointed of God.
