Wesley's Notes for 1 Chronicles 6:55

6:54 Castles - So called, not only because, walled and well guarded bythe country; but because they and their possessions were in a particularmanner the care of divine providence. As God was their portion, so Godwas their protector. And a cottage will be a castle to those that abideunder the shadow of the Almighty. The lot - Or, the first lot.
