And it is a journey of three days from Acre to Gaza, the city of the Philistines; and that city is splendid and its folk are many. And in that city Samson dragged the pillars from the palace of the king of the Philistines, and killed the king with his kings and with all bis people, by making the palace fall upon them. Thence (men go) to Askalon, and thence to Jaffa, and thence to Jerusalem.
