Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they dwelt in Gilead,.... In that part of it which belonged to the tribe of Gad:
in Bashan, and in her towns; :-,
and in all the suburbs of Sharon, upon their borders; there were two Sharons, one to the west of the land of Israel near the Mediterranean sea, which is mentioned in Acts 9:35 as near Lydda and Joppa; and the other to the east or northeast, beyond Jordan, which is here meant.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 5:16. The suburbs of Sharon — There were three places of this name: that mentioned here was a district in the country of Bashan beyond Jordan, (see Joshua 12:18;) there was another that lay between Caesarea of Palestine and Joppa; and there was a third between Mount Tabor and the Sea of Tiberias. See Calmet.
