- Numbers 13:21
So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, toward Lebo-hamath.
Commentary on Numbers 13:212 voices
The wilderness of Zin was the northeastern portion of the wilderness of Paran. Rehob (mod. Khurbeh) was probably the Beth-rehob of Jdg 18:28, near Dan-Laish; and apparently to the north of it, since it gave its name to a Syrian kingdom 2Sa 8:3. The southern approach to Hamath from the plain of Coele-Syria, lay between those two ranges of Lebanon called Libanus and Antilibanus. A low screen of hills connects the northernmost points of these two ranges; and through this screen the Orontes bursts from the upper Coele-Syrian hollow into the open plain of Hamath.

Unto great Zidon - The city of Sidon and the Sidonians are celebrated from the remotest antiquity. They are frequently mentioned by Homer. See the note on Jos 11:8.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Joshua 19:30
Ummah, Aphek, and Rehob. There were twenty-two cities, along with their villages.
Commentary on Joshua 19:302 voices
Ummah also,.... Ummah is not mentioned any where else: and Aphek; of which; see Gill on Jos 12:18, and Rehob; of which; see Gill on Jos 19:28, twenty and two cities with their villages: there are more set down in the account, but some of them did not belong to the tribe, only were on the border of it.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Twenty and two cities - There are nearly thirty cities in the above enumeration instead of twenty-two, but probably several are mentioned that were but frontier towns, and that did not belong to this tribe, their border only passing by such cities; and on this account, though they are named, yet they do not enter into the enumeration in this place. Perhaps some of the villages are named as well as the cities.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Joshua 21:31
Helkath, and Rehob—four cities, together with their pasturelands.
Commentary on Joshua 21:312 voices
Helkath with her suburbs,.... See Gill on Jos 19:25; the same with Hukok in 1Ch 6:75, and Rehob with her suburbs, four cities; See Gill on Jos 19:28.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The Lord commanded - Observe: the maintenance of ministers is not an arbitrary thing, left purely to the good will of the people. No: as the God of Israel commanded, that the Levites should be provided for, so hath the Lord Jesus ordained, (and a perpetual ordinance it is) that they who preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

- Judges 1:31
Asher failed to drive out the inhabitants of Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphik, and Rehob.
Commentary on Judges 1:312 voices
Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Compare the marginal reference. Accho, afterward called Ptolemais, now Akka or St. Jean dAcre, is named here for the first time.

- 2 Samuel 8:3
David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who had marched out to restore his dominion along the Euphrates River.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 8:32 voices
And David also smote Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah,.... Called sometimes Aramzobah, and was a part of Syria, as its name shows.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The history of the Kings [Samuel] recounts that David won these victories after he succeeded Saul in the kingship, and it seems inappropriate to introduce them into our ordered arrangement here since they are known to be recounted extensively there. But we must realize that …

- 2 Samuel 8:12
from Edom and Moab, from the Ammonites and Philistines and Amalekites, and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 8:122 voices
Of Syria,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Syria - Rather, as in 1Ch 18:11, Edom, which is manifestly the right reading, both because Edom, Moab, and Ammon are so frequently joined together, and because Davids Syrian spoil is expressly mentioned at the end of the verse. (The Hebrew letters for Aram (Syria) and Edom are very similar.)
Albert Barnes· Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)Evangelical
- 2 Samuel 10:6
When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, they hired twenty thousand Aramean foot soldiers from Beth-rehob and Zoba, as well as a thousand men from the king of Maacah and twelve thousand men from Tob.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:62 voices
The children of Ammon saw that they stank - That is, that their conduct rendered them abominable. This is the Hebrew mode of expressing such a feeling. See Gen 34:30. The Syrians of Bethrehob - This place was situated at the extremity of the valley between Libanus and Anti-libanus. The Syrians of Zoba were subject to Hadadezer. Maacah was in the vicinity of Mount Hermon, beyond Jordan, in the Trachonitis. Ish-tob - This was probably the same with Tob, to which Jephthah fled from the cruelty of his brethren. It was situated in the land of Gilead.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
It was a just and necessary war that had been forced on Israel, and they could hope for the blessing of God upon their arms. With great judgment the battle opened against the mercenaries, who could not stand against the furious onset of Joab, and not feeling the cause their own, consulted their safety by flight.

- 2 Samuel 10:8
The Ammonites marched out and arrayed themselves for battle at the entrance of the city gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the open country.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:82 voices
It was a just and necessary war that had been forced on Israel, and they could hope for the blessing of God upon their arms. With great judgment the battle opened against the mercenaries, who could not stand against the furious onset of Joab, and not feeling the cause their own, consulted their safety by flight.
