Quick answer

The list continues with Ziklag, Beth Marcaboth, and Hazar Susah. More of Simeon's towns are named.

Overview

Among these is Ziklag, which would later become significant in David's history as a refuge during his flight from Saul. The inclusion of such a town foreshadows its future role in God's unfolding plan through David's line. The continued record affirms the concrete inheritance Simeon received within Judah's territory.

Christ at the center

Joshua — the same name as Jesus, 'the LORD saves' — leads God's people into their inheritance, a shadow of the greater Joshua who brings us into the true rest and the promised land that remains.

How Joshua 19:5 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
