Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

A Pirathonite - He was, therefore, an Ephraimite 1Ch 27:14. Its name still lingers in “Feratah,” 6 miles west of Shechem. The 25 years, apparently consecutive, occupied by the judgeship of Ibzan, Elon, and Abdon, seem to have been very uneventful and prosperous, since the only record of them, preserved in the annals of their country, relates to the flourishing families and peaceful magnificence of two of the number.
