Contextual Overview

21 But the sons of Benjamin did not destroy the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem: and the Jebusite hath dwelt with the sons of Benjamin in Jerusalem until this present day. 22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the Lord was with them. 23 For when they were besieging the city, which before was called Luza, 24 They saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him: Shew us the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy. 25 And when he had shewed them, they smote the city with the edge of the sword: but that man, and all his kindred, they let go: 26 Who being sent away, went into the land of Hetthim, and built there a city, and called it Luza: which is so called until this day. 27 Manasses also did not destroy Bethsan, and Thanac, with their villages; nor the inhabitants of Dor, and Jeblaam, and Mageddo, with their villages. And the Chanaanite began to dwell with them. 28 But after Israel was grown strong, he made them tributaries, and would not destroy them. 29 Ephraim also did not slay the Chanaanite that dwelt in Gazer, but dwelt with him. 30 Zabulon destroyed not the inhabitants of Cetron, and Naalol: but the Chanaanite dwelt among them, and became their tributary.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol,.... The first of these seems to be the same with Kattah or Kartah, and the latter with Nahalal, both cities given to the Levites, Joshua 19:15; which perhaps was the reason of their sloth in driving them out; though it aggravated their sin not to take care to rid those cities of the Canaanites, which were given to religious persons:

but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries; which is observed so far in their favour, that they exerted themselves to make them tributaries, which was more than was done by some others.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Judges 1:30. Neither did Zebulun drive out — See on Joshua 19:10-15.
