Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset & David Brown · 19th-century historical commentary

Gederoth--on the Philistine frontier (Jos 15:41). Shocho--or Socoh (Jos 15:35), now Shuweikeh, a town in the Valley of Judah (see on Sa1 17:1). Gimzo--now Jimza, a little east of Ludd (Lydda) [ROBINSON]. All these disasters, by which the "Lord brought Judah low," were because of Ahaz, king of Israel (Judah), see Ch2 21:2; Ch2 24:16; Ch2 28:27, who made Judah naked, and transgressed sore against the Lord.
