from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Geba: 1 Chronicles 8:6, Joshua 18:24, Joshua 21:17, 1 Samuel 13:3
Alemeth: i.e. covering a hiding place, [Strong's H5954]. Joshua 21:18, Almon
Alemeth 1. A Levitical city of Benjamin 1 Chronicles 6:60, called also Almon Joshua 21:18, 2. A descendant of Jonathan, son of Saul 1 Chronicles 8:36, 1 Chronicles 9:42, 3. Compare Alameth son of Becher, Almon and Alemeth having the same signification, are perfectly interchangeable. 1 Chronicles 7:8
Anathoth: 1 Chronicles 7:8, 1 Kings 2:26, Isaiah 10:30, Jeremiah 1:1, Jeremiah 11:23, Jeremiah 37:12
thirteen cities: Here there are only eleven enumerated; but two more are added in the book of Joshua, Juttah and Gibeon, which make thirteen. Joshua 10:2, Joshua 15:55, Joshua 21:16, Joshua 21:17, 1 Chronicles 14:16, None of the versions give the full number of names, though they all give the whole sum of thirteen; and it is probable that these two cities had been destroyed and lay in ruins when this book was written, and hence were not enumerated.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The writer evidently had before him Joshua 21:0, which he followed, as to its matter, closely. In some cases he perhaps modernised the ancient names (1 Chronicles 6:58, 1 Chronicles 6:60, 1 Chronicles 6:72, etc.); in a few he substituted for the old an entirely new name, the modern apellation, probably, of the ancient site 1 Chronicles 6:70, 1 Chronicles 6:77. At one time, it would seem, his intention was to give the cities of the priests only, and to content himself with stating the mere number of the rest. His account of the matter was then brought to a conclusion, and summed up, in 1 Chronicles 6:64. But, afterward, either he or a later writer thought it best to add to the list of the priestly cities the information contained in Judges as to those which were not priestly, but merely Levitical. The passage 1 Chronicles 6:65-81 was then added.
The entire account has suffered much from corruption. In the first list two names, those of Juttah and Gideon, have dropped out. It is necessary to restore them in order to complete the number of thirteen cities 1 Chronicles 6:60. In the second list 1 Chronicles 6:67-70 there is likewise an omission of two cities, Eltekeh and Gibbethon, which are wanted to make up the number ten 1 Chronicles 6:61. The third list is complete, though some of the names are very different from these of Joshua. In the fourth, two names are again wanting, those of Jokneam and Kartah.
1 Chronicles 6:61
Unto the sons of Kohath which were left - i. e. to such of them as were not priests.
Out of the half tribe ... ten cities - The half tribe furnished two cities only (1 Chronicles 6:70, and compare Joshua 21:25). It is evident therefore that something has fallen out. We may supply from Joshua the words “out of Ephraim and out of Dan, and” before “out of the half tribe.”
1 Chronicles 6:77
Unto the rest of the children of Merari - Rather, “Unto the rest the children of Merari” - that is to say, “unto the remainder of the Levites, who were descendants of Merari”: - the two other branches, the Kohathites and the Gershomites, having been treated of previously.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 60. All their cities - were thirteen — But there are only eleven reckoned here, Gibeon and Juttah being omitted, and the names of some of the others changed. None of the versions give the full number of names, although they all give the whole sum thirteen.
