John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Joshua 21:5

Children of Kohath — Who were of Aaron's family. Ephraim, Dan, and Manesseh — Which tribes are nearest to the three former, and so the Kohathites are placed next to their brethren the Aaronites. Ten cities — Fewer than they gave out of the three former tribes, because their inheritance was less than the former.
