Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
they went: This expedition of the Simeonites took place in the days of Hezekiah, and, as Calmet conjectures, near the time of the captivity of the ten tribes; when the remnant of Simeon would feel themselves obliged to retire more southward into Arabia Petrea, for fear of the Jews, and to seek pasture for their flocks.
Gedor: 1 Chronicles 4:4, 1 Chronicles 4:18, Joshua 12:13, Geder, Joshua 15:58
Reciprocal: Genesis 49:7 - I will divide 1 Chronicles 12:7 - Gedor
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they went to the entrance of Gedor,.... There was a city of this name in the tribe of Judah, 1 Chronicles 4:18 but this seems to be further off, and perhaps is the same with Gedaris, mentioned by Strabo l along with Azotus and Askelon, cities that belonged to the Philistines; since it was inhabited by the posterity of Ham, of whom the Philistines were, as in the following verse:
even unto the east side of the valley; which was near to Gedor, and a suitable place:
to seek pasture for their flocks; their sheep and goats.
l Geograph. l. 16. p. 522.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Gedor - Rather read, “Gerar” (Septuagint) a fertile district Genesis 26:6-12; 2 Chronicles 14:14-15 in Philistine country.
