Verse 18

The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the low country ,.... Which lay nearest to them, as Sharon, Lydda, Joppa, &c.; in revenge of what Uzziah had done to them, 2 Chronicles 26:6 , and of the south of Judah; they penetrated as far as that, from the west to the south of the land:

and had taken Bethshemesh, and Ajalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho, with the villages thereof and Timnah with the villages thereof ; of which see Joshua 15:10 .

and Gimzo also, and the villages thereof ; which though nowhere else mentioned in Scripture, yet we frequently read in Jewish writings F12 T. Bab. Taanith, fol. 21. 1. Sanhedrin, fol. 108. 2, &c.; of Nahum, a man of Ganizu, which perhaps is the same place with this:

and they dwelt there ; kept them in their hands, and inhabited them.
