Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Kings 15:27

27 ¶ And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him, and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines , (for Nadab and all Isaael laid siege to Gibbethon)

i. e. Of the Tribe, which is oft called an house, as Iudg. 10. 9. Psal. 135. 20. Hos. 1. 7.

Who, taking advantage of the division between Israel and Iudah, had retaken this Town, which belonged to the Tribe of Dan, Ios. 19. 44. and belonged to the Levites, Ios. 21. 23. upon whose departure to Iudah, 2 Chron. 11. 14. the Kings of Israel seized their Towns and Lands to their own use, as was noted before; which made them so much concerned for this Town, to besiege both now and many Years after this time, chap. 16. 15.
