Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Gath,.... Which cannot be that Gath which was one of the principalities of the Philistines, but a city in the tribe of Judah; though of it we nowhere else read; unless this is the same with Moreshethgath, Micah 1:14, which is probable, since it follows:
and Mareshah; the birth place of Micah the prophet, Micah 1:1,
and Ziph; there were two cities of this name in the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:24.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For Gath, see Joshua 13:3 note. Its native king, Achish 1 Kings 2:39, is to he regarded, not as an independent monarch, but as one of the many vassal-kings over whom Solomon reigned 2 Chronicles 9:23. For Mareshah, see Joshua 15:44, for Ziph, Joshua 15:55.
