In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah did Zimri
 reign seven days in Tirzah,
 &c] Until the army under Omri came and took the palace, and destroyed him: 
 and the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belongeth to the
 Philistines;
 it was besieged in Nadab's time, but upon his death, by Baasha, the siege was raised; or however, if then taken, it was recovered by the Philistines, and now besieged again by the Israelites, see ( 1 Kings 15:27 ) .
