Gill's Notes on the Bible

Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner,.... Or rather but Joab, c. n. They stood not still as the rest, but, filled with indignation and resentment, pursued after Abner, to be avenged on him:

and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah a hill by the side of which was a pool of water, as Kimchi thinks, and from thence so called:

that [lieth] before Giah; a place near Gibeon, but nowhere after mentioned:

by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon; very likely not far from the city from which it had its name.

n "Autem", V. L. Tiguriue version; "sed", Junius Tremellius, Piscator so Kimchi.
