Verse 38
And out of the tribe of Gad ,.... Which also, as that of Reuben, lay on the other side Jordan:
Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs ; of which see Joshua 20:8 ,
to be a city of refuge for the slayer ; and is the sixth and last city of refuge in this account:
and Mahanaim with her suburbs ; here it was the angels met Jacob, which gave rise to the name of the place, Genesis 32:1 ; afterwards a city was built here, and was on the borders of the tribe of Gad, and belonged to it, Joshua 13:26 ; mention is made of it in other places, 2 Samuel 2:8 1 Kings 2:8 .
