Joshua 18:24

And Chepharhaammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their villages:

And Chepharhaammonai, and Ophni,.... Of the two first of these no mention is made elsewhere;

and Gaba is the same with Gibeah, a well known place, because of the foul fact committed there, which had like to have been the ruin of this tribe, Judges 19:14; and for being the native place of King Saul, hence called "Gibeah of Saul", 1 Samuel 11:4; it was about six or seven miles from Jerusalem, See Gill on "Hosea 5:8"; twelve cities with their villages; which agrees with the account of them.
