Ebenezer: 1 Samuel 4:1, 1 Samuel 7:12
Ashdod: Ashdod, called Azotus by the Greeks, was one of the five satrapies of the Philistines, and a place of great strength and consequence. It was situated near the Mediterranean, between Askelon and Jamnia, thirty-four miles north of Gaza, according to Diodorus Siculus, and the Antonine and Jerusalem Itineraries. It is now called Shdood; and Dr. Richardson says they neither saw nor heard of any ruins there. "The ground," he observes, "around Ashdod is beautifully undulating, but not half stocked with cattle. The site of the town is on the summit of a grassy hill; and, if we are to believe historians, was anciently as strong as it was beautiful." Joshua 11:22, Acts 8:40, Azotus

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Philistines took the ark of God,.... Which fell into their hands, Israel being beaten, and caused to flee, and the priests that had the care of the ark slain; and when possessed of it, they did not destroy it, nor take out of it what was in it, only took it up:
and brought it from Ebenezer unto Ashdod. Ebenezer was the place where the camp of Israel was pitched, 1 Samuel 4:1 and near to which the battle was fought. Ashdod was one of the five principalities of the Philistines, the same with Azotus, Acts 8:40. The distance between these two places, according to Bunting q was one hundred and sixty miles; though one would think the distance from each other was not so great: why it was carried to Ashdod is not plain; perhaps it might be the nearest place of note in their country; and certain it is that it was one of their most famous cities, if not the most famous;
Acts 8:40- :, and had a famous idol temple in it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER V
The Philistines set up the ark in the temple of Dagon at Ashdod;
whose image is found next morning prostrate before it, broken
in pieces, 1-5.
The Philistines are also smitten with a sore disease, 6.
The people of Ashdod refuse to let the ark stay with them; and
the lords of the Philistines, with whom they consulted, order
it to be carried to Gath, 7, 8.
They do so; and God smites the inhabitants of that city, young
and old, with the same disease, 9.
They send the ark to Ekron, and a heavy destruction falls upon
that city, and they resolve to send it back to Shiloh, 10-12.
