The son of Abinadab in all the region of Dor
The same with Dor and her towns, belonged to the half tribe of Manasseh, on this side Jordan, ( Joshua 17:11 ) ; which had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife;
not when he was first put into this office, when, in all probability, Solomon had not a daughter marriageable; but behaving well in it, in process of time he bestowed a daughter of his on him.
