Gill's Notes on the Bible

And these are the golden emerods, which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the Lord,.... Along with the ark:

for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon, one, for Gath one, for Ekron one; which were the five principalities of the Philistines that belonged to the five lords before mentioned; and each of these were at the expense of a golden emerod, and sent it along with the ark to make atonement for the offence they had been guilty of in taking and detaining it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 6:17. These are the golden emerods — Each of these cities, in what may be called its corporate capacity, sent a golden emerod.
