Joshua 21:36
And out of the tribe of Reuben, Bezer with her suburbs, and Jahazah with her suburbs,
Cross-reference
In Joshua 13:18, Bezer and Jahaz appear among the cities given to the tribe of Reuben in the same territory.
Joshua 20:8 identifies Bezer as a city of refuge, which is also a Levitical city here.
Deuteronomy 4:43 also names Bezer as a city of refuge for Reuben, consistent with its Levitical role.
1 Chronicles 6:78 parallels this list, giving the same cities Bezer and Jahazah for Levites from Reuben.
In Numbers 35:6, God commands giving 48 cities to Levites; Joshua 21:36 records the allocation of Bezer and Jahaz as part of that fulfillment.
In Numbers 21:23, Jahaz is the site where Sihon fought Israel; here it becomes a Levitical city in the same region.
In Jeremiah 48:21, Jahaz and Mephaath are mentioned as Moabite cities receiving judgment; these same places here are Reubenite Levitical cities.
