   ›Commentary on 1 Samuel 30:302 voices

   “And to them which were in Hormah,.... This was a city also in the tribe of Judah; of which see Jos 15:30, and to them which were in Chorashan; or the lake of Ashan, which was in the same tribe, see Jos 15:42, and to them which were in Athach; nowhere else mentioned; the Greek version has Nombe instead of it, which some take to be the same with Nob; but that was in the tribe of Benjamin.

   “Hormah - The general name of those cities which belonged to Arad, king of Canaan; and were devoted to destruction by the Hebrews, and thence called Hormah. See Num 21:1-3. In Chor-ashan - Probably the same as Ashan in the tribe of Judah: see Jos 15:42 (note). It was afterwards ceded to Simeon, Jos 19:7. To them which were in Athach - Probably the same as Ether, Jos 19:7.
