Ajalon: This appears to be the Ajalon which Jerome places two miles from Nicopolis or Emmaus, in the road to Jerusalem. Joshua 10:12, Joshua 21:24, 1 Samuel 14:31

Reciprocal: Judges 12:12 - Aijalon 1 Kings 4:9 - Shaalbim 1 Chronicles 8:13 - Aijalon 2 Chronicles 11:10 - Zorah

And Shaalabbin,.... The first of these is the same with Shaalbim, Judges 1:35; and which Jerom r calls Selab, in the tribe of Dan; and which he says was in his day shown a large village on the borders of Sebaste, by the name of Selaba.

and Ajalon is famous for the standing still of the moon in its valley while Joshua pursued his enemies, Judges 1:35- :;

and Jethlah, of which we read nowhere else.

r De loc. Heb. fol. 94. K.
