The margin of Micah 1:1010Declare ye it not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust. (Micah 1:10) explains the name as “house of dust,” so that there is a play upon the word dust: “in the house of dust roll thyself in the dust.” The LXX read “the house in derision.” It may refer to OPHRAH in Joshua 18:2323And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah, (Joshua 18:23) and 1 Samuel 13:17,17And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto the land of Shual: (1 Samuel 13:17) a city in the tribe of Benjamin.
