Darnach kam es nochmals zum Kriege mit den Philistern zu Gob. Da erschlug Sibechai, der Chuschatiter, den Soph, welcher auch einer von den Kindern Raphas war.
Und es geschah hernach, da begann wiederum der Streit mit den Philistern, zu Gob. Damals erschlug Sibbekai, der Huschathiter, den Saph, der von den Söhnen des Rapha war.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass after this,.... After the former battle:
that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob; in
1 Chronicles 20:4 it is called Gezer; either the place had two names, or these two places were near each other; so that the battle may be said to be fought both at the one and at the other, being fought equally near to both:
then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Saph, which [was] of the sons of the giant; who is called Sippai, 1 Chronicles 20:4; he had his name from the lintel of a door, being as high as one, so tall that he could scarce go under one. Sibbechai was one of David's worthies, 1 Chronicles 11:29; perhaps a descendant of Hushah, who sprung from Judah, 1 Chronicles 4:4.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A battle in Gob - In the parallel passage (marginal reference), “Gezer” is named as the field of this battle. However, Gath is named 2 Samuel 21:20, 2 Samuel 21:22 in a way to make it probable that Gath was the scene of all the battles. The Septuagint in this verse has “Gath.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Samuel 21:18. A battle - at Gob — Instead of Gob, several editions, and about forty of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS., have nob; but Gezer is the name in the parallel place, 1 Chronicles 20:4.
