This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Of Samaria, i.e. of the kingdom of Samaria, as it was called, though not when this fact was done, yet before these books were written. Samaria was properly the name of one city, 1Ki_20:1; but from hence the whole kingdom of Israel was so called, Jer_31:5 Hos_7:1 Hos_8:5 Amo_3:9; and the king of Israel is called the king of Samaria, 2Ki_1:3 Hos_10:7; and (as here) we read of the cities of Samaria, Ezr_4:10.
