Commentary for I Chronicles 7:21

וְזָבָ֥ד בְּנ֛וֹ וְשׁוּתֶ֥לַח בְּנ֖וֹ וְעֵ֣זֶר וְאֶלְעָ֑ד וַהֲרָג֗וּם אַנְשֵׁי־גַת֙ הַנּוֹלָדִ֣ים בָּאָ֔רֶץ כִּ֣י יָרְד֔וּ לָקַ֖חַת אֶת־מִקְנֵיהֶֽם׃

and Zabad his son, and Shuthelah his son—and Ezer, and Elead, whom the men of Gath that were born in the land slew, because they came down to take away their cattle.

Rashi on I Chronicles

and the men of Gath, etc. slew them because they came down to take their cattle They were unfamiliar with the ways of the roads and the ways out of the land, and the men of Gath, the natives of the land, slew them because they were familiar with that land.
