(66) And the residue of the families.--The Hebrew text can hardly mean this; and Joshua 21:20 shows that it is incorrect. The original text must have been, "And to the families of the sons of Kohath:--and the cities of their border were of the tribe of Ephraim." The construction breaks off, and a new start is made by the words "and the cities," &c. The verse is abridged as compared with Joshua, 50100
