Bethuel
The name "Bethuel" is derived from the Hebrew roots "beth," meaning "house," and "El," meaning "God." Thus, Bethuel can be interpreted as "House of God." This name is significant in the biblical narrative as it reflects the centrality of God in the lives of the Israelites. Bethuel is also a personal name in the Bible, known as the father of Rebekah, Isaac's wife. The mention of Bethuel in this context likely refers to a geographical location, a town within the territory of the tribe of Simeon. This highlights the importance of places named after divine attributes or figures, serving as a constant reminder of God's presence and covenant with His people.

Hormah
The name "Hormah" is rooted in the Hebrew word "cherem," which means "devoted" or "destroyed." Historically, Hormah was a city in the Negev region of ancient Israel. It holds a significant place in Israel's history, particularly during the wilderness wanderings. In Numbers 21:3, the Israelites vowed to the Lord to utterly destroy the Canaanite cities, and Hormah was one of those places. This act of devotion and destruction was a fulfillment of God's command to purify the land from idolatry and sin. The mention of Hormah in 1 Chronicles 4:30 serves as a reminder of the Israelites' commitment to God's commands and the consequences of disobedience.

Ziklag
Ziklag is a town with a rich biblical history, often associated with King David. The name "Ziklag" may derive from a root meaning "to press someone mentally," possibly indicating a place of pressure or distress. Ziklag was initially allotted to the tribe of Judah and later became a Philistine city. It was given to David by Achish, the Philistine king of Gath, as a place of refuge when David fled from Saul. This city became a base for David and his men, and it was from Ziklag that David launched raids against the Amalekites and other enemies. The mention of Ziklag in this verse underscores God's providence and protection over David, even in times of trial and uncertainty. It serves as an inspiration for believers to trust in God's plan, even when circumstances seem dire.

(30) Bethuel.--Called Chesil in Joshua 15:30; Joshua 19:4 has Beth-l, a contraction like Hamul for Hamuel (1Chronicles 4:26; comp. 1Chronicles 2:5).

Hormah.--The ancient Zephath (Judges 1:17), now Sepata. . . .
