Commentary
Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary**Verses 20-63**
Here is a list of the cities of Judah. But we do not here find Bethlehem, afterwards the city of David, and ennobled by the birth of our Lord Jesus in it. That city, which, at the best, was but little among the thousands of Judah, Mi 5:2, except that it was thus honoured, was now so little as not to be accounted one of the cities.
Matthew Henry (1662–1714). Public Domain.
