Commentary
Gill's Exposition
The children also of Benjamin, from Geba, dwelt at Michmash,.... Geba was a city on the southern border of Benjamin, Jos 18:24 and Michmash on the northern, of which see Sa1 13:2 in this and the four following verses
are the names of several cities in the tribe of Benjamin, inhabited by the men of that tribe, as Alia, the same with Ai, that lay on the east of Bethel, here also mentioned, see Jos 7:2 Anathoth, the birth place of Jeremiah the prophet, Jer 1:1 . Nob, a city of the priests, Sa1 21:1 . Ananiah is nowhere else mentioned; Hazor is to be distinguished from another of this name in the tribe of Naphtali, Jos 19:36 . Ramah, a place well known in Benjamin, Jos 18:25 . Gittaim, of which see Sa2 4:3 . Hadid, the same with Adida, which lay in a plain,"Simon also set up Adida in Sephela, and made it strong with gates and bars.'' (1 Maccabees 12:38)Zeboim, a valley of this name, is read in Sa1 13:18 . Neballat we read of nowhere else; of Lod and Ono, see Ch1 8:12 and the valley of craftsmen, or Chorasin, Ch1 4:14 .
