This verse demonstrates God's faithfulness in keeping His covenant with the Israelites, providing them with the land He had promised to their ancestors.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

Twenty and two cities - There are nearly thirty cities in the above enumeration instead of twenty-two, but probably several are mentioned that were but frontier towns, and that did not belong to this tribe, their border only passing by such cities; and on this account, though they are named, yet they do not enter into the enumeration in this place. Perhaps some of the villages are named as well as the cities.
