Gill's Notes on the Bible

The son of Geber in Ramothgilead,.... A city in the tribe of Gad, and was a city of refuge, Joshua 20:8;

to him [pertained] the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; of which see Numbers 32:41;

to him [also pertained] the region of Argob, which [is] in Bashan,

threescore great cities with walls, and brasen bars; called by Josephus s Ragaba, beyond Jordan; Numbers 32:41- :.

s Antiqu. l. 13. c. 15. sect. 5.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

It will be observed that five out of the twelve prefects are designated solely by their father’s names, Ben-Hur, etc., while one (Ahimaaz, 1 Kings 4:15) has no such designation. Probably the document, which the author of the Book of Kings consulted, had contained originally the proper name and father’s name of each prefect; but it was mutilated or illegible in places at the time when he consulted it. If it was in the shape of a list, a single mutilation at one corner might have removed four of the six wanting names.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 4:13. Threescore great cities with walls and brazen bars — These were fortified cities: their gates and bars covered with plates of brass. Such were the gates in Priam's palace: -

Ipse inter primos correpta dura bipenni

Limina perrumpit, POSTES que a cardine vellit

AERATOS. VIRG. AEn., lib. ii. ver. 479.

Fierce Pyrrhus in the front, with forceful sway,

Plied the huge axe, and hew'd the beams away;

The solid timbers from the portal tore,

And rent from every hinge the BRAZEN door.

PITT.
