"or, the bridle of Ammah. 2Sa 2:24; 1Ch 18:1, etc.; Gath. In the parallel passage of Chronicles, we read, ""David took Gath and her towns;"" and it is probable, that Gath and its districts were called Metheg-ammah in David's time; which, being unusual or becoming obsolete, in the time of the author of the Chronicles, led him thus to explain it." |
