Joshua15:36
36 And Sharaim, and Adithaim, and Gederah, and Gederothaim; fourteen cities with their villages.
Obj. There are 15 numbred. Ans. Either one of them was no City strictly called; or, Gederah, and Gederothaim is put for Gederah, or Gederothaim, so called; possibly because the City was double, as there want not instances of one City divided into two parts, called the old and the new City. So the conjunction, and, is put for the disjunctive, or, whereof examples have been given before.
Marginal references: Or, or.
