This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Here and in the following verses are contained all the cities of the Philistines, among which are Gath and Askelon, which peradventure are here omitted, because they were not at this time places of such power and eminency as afterwards they were, but were the daughters of some of these following cities, though afterwards the daughter might overtop the mother, as is usual.
Her towns, Heb. her daughters, i.e. lesser cities, or great towns, subject to Ekton’s jurisdiction.
Her villages, i.e. lesser towns or hamlets.
