Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Joshua 15:24
Ziph, and Telem, and Bealoth,
24. Ziph ] ( b) With this town commences a second group of five cities:
(1) Ziph, not identified; (2) Telem, not identified not to be confounded with Telaim, where Saul collected and numbered his forces before his attack on Amalek (1Sa 15:4); (3) Bealoth = Bealoth-beer, on the road towards Hebron; (4) Hazor-hadattah = “ New Hazor;” (5) Kerioth-Hezron, which is Hazor; the names are to be joined together, like Kirjath-arba and Kirjath-jearim.

Verse 24. Ziph] There were two cities of this name in the tribe of Judah, that mentioned here, and another Jos 15:55. One of these two is noted for the refuge of David when persecuted by Saul; and the attempts made by its inhabitants to deliver him into the hands of his persecutor. See 1Sa 23:14-24.

Ziph,…. Ziph was of the tribe of Judah in the south, on the borders of Eleutheropolis, as Jerom says d and was eight miles from Hebron to the east; and in his time a village was shown, where David was hid; but that Ziph seems to be in another part of this tribe near Carmel, and from whence a wilderness had its name; see Jos 15:55;
and Telem is supposed to be the same with Telaim, 1Sa 15:4;
and Bealoth; of this city we read nowhere else.
