1. Gath (Philistine city) — The proper geographical name for Gath (Hebrew גַּת, 'winepress'), one of the five major Philistine city-states, home of Goliath and a key locale in the David narratives. All three clusters represent prepositional and case variants of the same toponym: the primary form 'Gath/in Gath' covering the vast majority of occurrences (eng Gath/in-Gath, spa Gat/en-Gat, hin गत/गत-में, arb جَتَّ/فِي-جَتَّ, kor 에-가드/가드의, swa Gathi/katika-Gathi), the ablative/source form 'from Gath' (eng from-Gath, spa de-Gat, hin गत-से, arb مِنْ-جَتَّ, kor 가드에서, swa kutoka-Gathi), and the dative/benefactive 'for Gath' (eng for-Gath, spa para-Gat, hin गत-के-लिए, arb لِـجَتّ, kor 가드에, swa kwa-Gathi). All translations consistently render this as a single place name. 33×
