John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 11. And they gave them the city of Arba, the father of Anak , etc.] Which from him was called Kirjatharba, ( Joshua 14:15); and Anak, according to Kimchi, is not the name of a man, but a general name, comprehending the Anakims, a race of giants, among whom Arba was the chief and principal man, a prince and ruler over them, as Ben Melech: which [city is] Hebron in the hill [country] of Judah ; as in ( Joshua 14:15); (see Luke 1:39,65); with the suburbs thereof round about it ; as far as two thousand cubits, which were to put their cattle in, and provision for them.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 9-42 - By mixing the Levites with the other tribes, they were made to see tha the eyes of all Israel were upon them, and therefore it was their concern to walk so that their ministry might not be blamed. Every trib had its share of Levites' cities. Thus did God graciously provide for keeping up religion among them, and that they might have the word in all parts of the land. Yet, blessed be God, we have the gospel mor diffused amongst us. (Jos 21:43-45)
