John Wesley's Notes
Gittites - Or rather strangers, as Ittai their head is called, II Samuel 15:19, and they are called his brethren, II Samuel 15:20. Probably they were Philistines by birth, born in the city or territory of Gath, as the following words imply, who by David's counsel, and example, were won to embrace the true religion, and had given good proof of their military skill, and valour, and fidelity to the king.
