"and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph," — 2 Chronicles 11:8 (ASV)

For Gath, see the note on Joshua 13:3. Its native king, Achish (1 Kings 2:39), is to be regarded not as an independent monarch, but as one of the many vassal-kings over whom Solomon reigned (2 Chronicles 9:23). For Mareshah, see Joshua 15:44; for Ziph, see Joshua 15:55.
