This region was often a battleground between the Israelites and the Philistines. Moresheth Gath's association with Gath, a major Philistine city, may indicate its proximity or historical interactions with Philistine culture. The town's most notable resident, the prophet Micah, ministered during the reigns of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and his messages often addressed issues of social justice and the impending judgment on Israel and Judah.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3423.htm">yarash</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1661.htm">Gath</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"possession," a place near Gath<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Moresheth-gath (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">מוֺרֶ֫שֶׁת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> apparently in neighbourhood of Gath <a href="/interlinear/micah/1-14.htm">Micah 1:14</a> (<font class="hebrew2">גַּת</font> vocative, according to We;
