Shimron: Supposed to be the same with Symira, in Coele-Syria, joined to Maron or Marath by Pliny and Pomponius Mela. Achshaph: Supposed by some to be the same as Achzib or Ecdippa; from which, however, it is distinguished in ch. 19:25, 29. It was in the northern part of the tribe of Asher.

Joshua 9-11 should be viewed in a sense as a unit, summarizing the conquest of the central, southern and finally the northern regions of the promised land. (See map summarizing the central, southern and northern campaigns) Dale Ralph Davis -Joshua 9–11 forms a fairly connected unit. We may briefly summarise it as follows: Israel without Yahweh, 9:1–27 Yahweh with Israel, 10:1–11:15 Southern campaign, 10:1–43 Setting, 10:1–5 Summary, 10:40–43 Northern campaign, 11:1–15 Setting, 11:1–5 Summary, 11:12–15 Summary, 11:16–23 (Joshua: No Falling Words) Matthews - The word “heard” (shama‘) is a key term in chapter 9, where the Hebrew root occurs five times (9:1, 3, 9 [2×], 16). It also binds together chapters 9–11. “Heard” begins chapter 10’s events (Joshua 10:1; cf. 10:14, “listened”), and the same language begins chapter 11’s account (Joshua 11:1). What the southern and northern kings hear is a report of Joshua’s victories; unlike the Gibeonites, who have sought peace, the southern and northern coalitions muster troops. (Joshua Teach the Text Commentary) Then it came about - The Canaanites make one final attempt to destroy the people of God. The enemy was desperate and proceed to bring the largest force that Joshua has faced to this point (as best we can determine from the text). When Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon and to the king of Shimron and to the king of Achshaph -Jabin means “one who is intelligent,” or “discerning.” Heard of what? Clearly the defeat of the kings in the central and south. The word has traveled about 80 miles from Gilgal that Israel had been invincible (with the exception of one small "hiccup" named Ai!) Jabin is clearly in "panic mode!" Achshaph's name is interesting as it means a "place of sorcery!"
