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.
And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And so the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.

from him. or, of his
chariots As
1 Chronicles 18:4 And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, …
seven hundred In the parallel place in chronicles it is `{seven thousand} horsemen,' a far more probable number. The letter (), {zayin}, with a dot upon it stands for {seven thousand}, and the final letter (), {noon}, for {seven hundred}: the great similarity of these letters might easily cause the one to be mistaken for the other, and so produce an error in this place.
