Commentary on Joshua 19:44

Theological / Devotional

Gibbethon. Signifying “mound,” or “height.” It is identified with Tell el-Melat, 7 mi. (11.5 km.) south by east from Japho (Jaffa). The Danites do not seem to have gained possession of it, or if so, the Philistines took it (1 Kings 15:27; 16:15). It was a Levitical city (Joshua 21:23).
