From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

The “woe” having been pronounced on the five cities apart, now falls upon the whole nation of the Cherethites or Philistines. The Cherethites are only named as equivalent to the Philistines, probably as originally a distinct immigration of the same people . The name is used by the Egyptian slave of the Amalekite1 Samuel 30:14for those whom the author of the first book of Samuel calls Philistines1 Samuel 30:16. Ezekiel uses the name parallel with that of “Philistines,” with reference to the destruction which God would bring upon them . The word of the Lord -Comes not to them, but “upon” them, overwhelming them.
