John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 47. Ashdod with her towns and, her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages , etc.] Gaza was another of the principalities of the Philistines, of which (see Gill on “Amos 1:7”); (see Gill on “ Zephaniah 2:4”); (see Gill on “ Acts 8:26”); these, with the two other principalities not mentioned, Gath and Ashkelon, were in the western border of the tribe of Judah, which reached from Ekron, the first that is mentioned, unto the river of Egypt ; of which (see Joshua 15:4); and the great sea, and the border [thereof] ; the Mediterranean sea, called so in comparison of the lesser seas in Judea, the salt sea, and the sea of Tiberias; whose border was its shore, and the cities upon it, and not the isles in the sea, as Jarchi.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 20-63 - Here is a list of the cities of Judah. But we do not here fin Bethlehem, afterwards the city of David, and ennobled by the birth of our Lord Jesus in it. That city, which, at the best, was but littl among the thousands of Judah, Mic 5:2, except that it was thu honoured, was now so little as not to be accounted one of the cities __________________________________________________________________
