Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ahinadab the son of Iddo [had] Mahanaim. Another city on the other side Jordan, where both Ishbosheth and David sometimes dwelt, 2 Samuel 2:8; this and the places adjacent must be very fruitful, since this officer was to furnish the king with provisions for a month once a year from hence,

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the margin. Ahinadab had the territory from the places last mentioned as far as Mahanaim Genesis 32:2.
