Verse 37
And Samlah died ,.... As is supposed, about A. M. 2283.
and Saul of Rehoboth by the river reigned in his stead ; Rehoboth was one of the cities built by Ashur, Genesis 10:11 ; and was situated near the river Euphrates; and so the Targum of Jonathan calls it Rehoboth which is by Euphrates; but Jerom F14 De loc. Heb. fol. 93. M. & 94. A. , from Eusebius, takes it to be another city by a river in Edom, and says, that there was in his days a garrison in the country of Gabalena (a part of Idumea), a large village called by that name.
