Genesis21:32
32 Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phicol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines .
(i. e.) Into their part of that Land, to wit Gerar, which was not far from this place. It is an usual synecdoche, whereby the whole Land is put for a part of it: Otherwise they were at this time in that Land.
