1 Chronicles 6
1. The sons of Levi.
4. The line of Eleazar unto the captivity.

(67) And they gave unto them, of the cities of refuge . . .--The correct version of the Hebrew text is, "And they gave unto them the cities of refuge, Shechem and her pastures, in the hill-country of Ephraim; and Gezer and her pastures." Perhaps both here and in 1Chronicles 6:57 above "city" ('iyr), and not "cities" ('arey), is the original reading. We have already noticed many indications of textual corruption in this and the former section. Gezer was not a city of refuge. (See Note on 1Chronicles 6:57.) Joshua 21:21 has the singular.
