Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 12. - In Aijalon. Not Aijalon in the tribe of Dan, mentioned Joshua 10:12; Joshua 19:42, but another city, only spoken of here, whose name is probably preserved in the ruins of Jalun, four hours east of Akka. It is remarkable that the two names Elon and Aijalon are identical in Hebrew as far as the consonants are concerned. It looks as if Aijalon, which is not mentioned among the Zebulonite cities in Joshua 19:10-16, was named from Elon, its possessor.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) Was buried in Aijalon.--There is a play of words between ???? (Elon) and ?????? (Ayalon), which is precisely the same word, though with different vowelpoints. It means not "a terebinth," but "gazelle." Ajalon is not Yalo, which is in the tribe of Dan (Joshua 10:12; 1Samuel 14:31); and it is at least doubtful whether it should not be read Elon, as in the LXX. (Ailon, both for the judge and his burial-place), in which case we must suppose that the place was named from him. It is not mentioned elsewhere.
