    - Gerar.
      Gerar was a city of Arabia Petraea, under a king of the
      Philistines, 25 miles from Eleutheropolis beyond Daroma, in
      the south of Judah.  From ch. 19 10:19, it appears to have been
      situated in the angle where the south and west sides of Canaan
      met, and to have been not far from Gaza.  Jerome, in his
      Hebrew Traditions on Genesis, says, from Gerar to Jerusalem
      was three days' journey.  There was a wood near Gerar, spoken
      of by Theodoret; and a brook, (ch. 26 26:26,) on which was a
      monastery, noticed by Sozomen.

      What these pieces were is not certain; but it is probable they
      were shekels, as it is so understood by the Targum; and the
      LXX. render it didrachma, by which the Hebrew shekel is
      rendered in ch. 15 23:15, 16.

      Or, 'behold IT (the 1000 shekels) is to thee,' etc.
