Gill's Notes on the Bible
And after him Abdon the son of Hillell, a Pirathonite, judged Israel. So called from Pirathon, where he was born, and which was in the tribe of Ephraim, as appears from Judges 12:15.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A Pirathonite - He was, therefore, an Ephraimite 1 Chronicles 27:14. Its name still lingers in âFeratah,â 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.
