Commentary on Joshua 24:33

Theological / Devotional

Eleazar. Probably he died about the same time as Joshua, or soon after.

Pertained to Phinehas. Literally, “hill of Phinehas.” As the cities assigned to the priests lay in the lots of Judah, Benjamin, and Simeon, this portion may have been given to the high priest in Mt. Ephraim voluntarily by the people for a place of residence at a convenient distance from Joshua and the tabernacle. The place may have been called the “hill of Phinehas,” because Phinehas possibly lived there longer than his father Eleazar.
