Barnes' Notes
Bethel - i. e. Bethuel I Chronicles 4:30, quite in the south near Beer-sheba, Hormah, and Ziklag; or Bethul Joshua 19:4, one of the cities of the Simeonites.
South Ramoth - Rather, "Ramoth of the South country" I Samuel 27:10; I Samuel 30:1, I Samuel 30:14, so-called to distinguish it from Ramoth-Gilead, one of the Simeonite cities Joshua 19:8. Shimei, the Ramathite I Chronicles 27:27, who was over David' s vineyards, was evidently a native of this Ramath. See below I Samuel 30:28.
Jattir - " In the mountains" of Judah, and one of the priests' cities, is identified with ' Attir, ten miles south of Hebron.
