יהושע, פרק כ״א, פסוק י״ח

The allocation of land to the priests includes specific towns along with their surrounding estates. One of these towns, Anathoth, holds historical significance as the home of the prophet Jeremiah, who was himself a priest [ביאור שטיינזלץ]. Each of these priestly cities was enveloped by a designated open area. This open space extended outward for two thousand cubits in every direction, providing a clear boundary around the settlement [רש״י].

Another city in this group is Almon, a location recognized by several different names throughout biblical history. In the book of Chronicles, it is called Alemet, while in the book of Samuel, it is referred to as Bahurim. Despite the changing titles, they all share the exact same underlying meaning. Each name is rooted in words that signify youth. This connection is further highlighted by ancient translations that directly substitute the name Bahurim with a word meaning youth [רש״י, רד״ק].

Ultimately, this specific allocation to the priests concludes with a final tally, noting that exactly four cities were given in this particular group [ביאור שטיינזלץ].
