Theological / Devotional

From Gibeon. Gibeon was about 6 miles northwest of Jerusalem, directly in the path of retreat (see on 2 Samuel 5:25).

Gazer. Or Gezer. This was a fortress overlooking the Valley of Aijalon, about 18 miles northwest of Jerusalem, which the Pharaoh of Egypt later captured and presented as a gift to his daughter, the wife of Solomon (1 Kings 9:15-17).
