Verse 13. The king of Geder] Probably the same with Gedor, Jos 15:58; it was situated in the tribe of Judah.

The king of Debir, one,…. The same with Kirjathsepher, of which place, [See comments on Jos 10:38];
the king of Geder, one: Jerom h seems to confound this with the tower of Eder, beyond which Jacob pitched his tent, Ge 35:21; and he speaks of a Gaddera in the tribe of Judah, in his time a village belonging to the country about Aelia or Jerusalem, and of Gahedur in the tribe of Judah, a large village, ten miles from Diospolis or Lydda, as you go to Eleutheropolis: it seems to be the same with Gederah, Jos 15:36, or Gedor, Jos 15:58.

Ver. 13. The king of Geder This is the first and only time that mention is made of a king of Geder. This city is in all probability the same as Gedera, Gederothaim, Gederoth or Geder, in the tribe of Judah, mentioned chap. Jos 15:36; Jos 15:41; Jos 15:58 and 2Ch 28:18. We cannot tell the exact situation of it; but it seems not to have been far distant from Jamnia. Strabo calls it Godara, and places it within the territory of Joppa and Jamnia. Bochart says, that all these names carry the idea of cities inclosed with hedges. See Can. lib. 1: cap. 34.
