- Joshua 15:32
Lebaoth, Shilhim, Ain, and Rimmon—twenty-nine cities in all, along with their villages.
Commentary on Joshua 15:322 voices
And Lebaoth,.... Whether Lebaoth is the same with Bethlebaoth, given to the tribe of Simeon, Jos 19:6; is not certain: and Shilhim is nowhere else spoken of: and Ain seems to be the same with that in Num 34:11; also See Gill on Num 34:11. and Rimmon, the place Jerom (e) calls Eremmon, which he says was a large village of the Jews, sixteen miles from Eleutheropolis to the south, in Daroma; this and the preceding are joined together as one, and called Enrimmon, Neh 11:
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
All the cities are twenty and nine, with their villages - But on a careful examination we shall find thirty-eight; but it is supposed that nine of these are excepted; viz., Beersheba, Moladah, Hazarshual, Baalah, Azem, Hormah, Ziklag, Ain, and Rimmon, which were afterwards given to the tribe of Simeon. This may appear satisfactory, but perhaps the truth will be found to be this: Several cities in the promised land are expressed by compound terms; not knowing the places, different translations combine what should be separated, and in many cases separate what should be combined.

- Joshua 19:7
Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan—four cities, along with their villages,
Commentary on Joshua 19:71 voice
Ain, Remmon,.... Of the two first, which were cities of Judah; see Gill on Jos 15:32, and Ether, and Ashan; of the two last; see Gill on Jos 19:42, four cities and their villages; Ain, Remmon, therefore, could not be one city, at this time, as it seems to have been in the times of Nehemiah, Neh 11:29; or otherwise there would have been but three cities.

- Joshua 21:16
Ain, Juttah, and Beth-shemesh—nine cities from these two tribes, together with their pasturelands.
Commentary on Joshua 21:161 voice
And Ain with her suburbs,....

- 1 Chronicles 4:32
And their villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five towns—
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 4:321 voice
And their villages were Etam, and Ain, Rimmon, and Tochen, and Ashan, five cities. There are but four mentioned in Jos 19:7 one might be added since, or new built, namely, Tochen; these, according to Kimchi, were all that remained for them to dwell in, in the times of David; and therefore they were obliged to seek out for new settlements for themselves and flocks, as in 1Ch 4:39, &c.
