Joshua 21:38

And out of the tribe of Gad
Which also, as that of Reuben, lay on the other side Jordan:

Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs;
of which see ( Joshua 20:8 ) ;

[to be] a city of refuge for the slayer;
and is the sixth and last city of refuge in this account:

and Mahanaim with her suburbs;
here it was the angels met Jacob, which gave rise to the name of the place, ( Genesis 32:1 Genesis 32:2 ) ; afterwards a city was built here, and was on the borders of the tribe of Gad, and belonged to it, ( Joshua 13:26 ) ; mention is made of it in other places, ( 2 Samuel 2:8 ) ( 1 Kings 2:8 ) .
