2 Samuel4:3

3 And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day).

Or, Yet, or But. For this comes in to anticipate an Objection against what he had now said. It is true, saith he, the Beerothites fled, as others did, upon the overthrow of Saul and his Army; 1 Sam. 31. 7. to a place called Gittaim; 2 Sam. 4. 3. not that in Benjamin, Nehem. 11. 33. but some other place of that name more remote from the Philistines and so they were Gittaimites by their present Habitation; but Beerothites by their Original, and place of their Birth.
