the Gederathite i.e. the man of Gederah. The only Gederah known was in the Judæan Shephelah (Joshua 15:36), so that it would seem that some men of Judah are reckoned along with the Benjamites in these verses. Similarly in 1 Chronicles 12:7 men of the Judæan town of Gedor(1 Chronicles 4:4; Joshua 15:58) are mentioned. It is possible that some words introducing the names of Judæan heroes have dropped out.
