Commentary on Joshua 15:362 voices
And Sharaim,.... Sharaim seems to be the Saara of Jerom, which he describes as a village on the borders of Eleutheropolis, to the north as you go to Nicopolis (or Emmaus), about ten miles from it in the tribe of Dan or Judah (o); there was a place called Bethshaaraim, where the sanhedrim sometimes sat (p), and where R. Judah was buried (q).

Gederah - See the note on Jos 12:13. Fourteen cities - Well reckoned, we shall find fifteen cities here; but probably Gederah and Gederothaim (Jos 15:36) are the same. See the note on Jos 15:32.

Commentary on 1 Chronicles 4:312 voices
For it is evident concerning Ziklag, one of them, that it was in the Philistines hands in David's time, and by them given to him, and by him annexed to the tribe of Judah, 1 Sam. xxvii, 6.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
Unto the reign of David - It is not quite clear why this clause is added. Perhaps the writer is quoting from a document belonging to Davids reign. Or, he may mean that some of the cities, as Ziklag 1Sa 27:6, were lost to Simeon about Davids time.
