Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age,.... Having lived it seems forty years after his war with Midian, blessed with a large family, much wealth and riches, great credit and esteem among his people, and in favour with God and men:

and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites; a city which belonged to the family of the Abiezrites, who were of the tribe of Manasseh, in which Gideon lived, and his father before him; and where there was a family vault, in which he was interred. In the days of this judge it is supposed m was the famous expedition of the Argonauts to Colchis, to fetch from thence the golden fleece.

m Gerard. Voss Chronolog. Sacr. Dissert. 1. p. 4.
