ad?i-da (Ἀδιδά, Adidá). A town of the Benjamin tribe near Lod and Ono located upon a hill facing the ?plain country? of Judea, rebuilt and fortified by Simon Maccabee (1 Macc 12:38), who later encamped here to meet the army of Tryphon (1 Macc 13:13; Ant, XIII, vi, 5). It was also here that Aretas, king of Arabia, met Alexander Janneus in battle and defeated him (Ant., XIII, xv, 2). Perhaps the El-Hadı̄theh of today located about three miles east of Lydda or Lod. See HADID.

Ad?ida, a fortified town in the tribe of Judah. In 1Ma_12:38, we read that Simon Maccabaeus set up 'Adida in Saphela, and made it strong with bolts and bars.' Eusebius says that Sephela was the name given in his time to the open country about Eleutheropolis. And this Adida in Sephela is probably the same which is mentioned in the next chapter (1Ma_13:13) as 'Adida over against the plain,' where Simon Maccabaeus encamped to dispute the entrance into Judea of Tryphon, who had treacherously seized on Jonathan at Ptolemais. In the parallel passage Josephus (Antiq. xiii. 6, 5) adds that this Adida was upon a hill, before which lay the plains of Judea. One of the places which Josephus calls Adida (Bell. Jud. iv. 9, 1) appears to have been near the Jordan, and was probably the Hadid of Ezr_2:33.

Adida
(Α᾿διδά, Josephus also τὰ ςΑδιδα or ςΑδδιδα, probably of Hebrew origin; Vulg. Addus), a fortified town in the tribe of Judah (1Ma_12:38), which Simon Maccabaeus set up “in Sephela” (ἐν τῇ Σεφήλᾷ), and made it strong with bolts and bars. Eusebius (Onomast. s.v.) says that Sephela was the name given in his time to the open country about Eleutheropolis (see Reland, Paloest. p. 187). This Adida is probably the “Adida over against the plain,” where Simon Maccabaeus encamped to dispute the entrance into Judaea of Tryphon, who had treacherously seized on Jonathan at Ptolemais (1Ma_13:13). Josephus (Ant. 13, 6, 4) adds that this Adida was upon a hill, before which lay the plains of Judaea. It is scarcely (see Reland, Paloest. p. 546) the same as Adithaim (Jos_15:36), but may be the ancient Adatha (Α᾿δαθά of Eusebius, Onomast. s.v. Α᾿διαθαϊvν) and the modern Eddis (Schwarz, Palest. p. 102), near Gaza. SEE ADITHAIM. It was apparently here that Aretas defeated Alexander (Josephus, Ant. 13, 15, 2). Lightfoot, however, contrives to multiply the place mentioned in the Maccabees and Josephus into four or five different towns (see Chorog. Decad. § 3). Another place of the name of Adida, mentioned by Josephus (War, 4, 9, 1) as having been garrisoned by Vespasian, is thought by Cellarius (Geogr. Ant. p. 338) to have been near Jericho; but Reland (Paloest. p. 546) argues that it was precisely in the opposite direction from Jerusalem, perhaps identical with the HADID SEE HADID (q.v.) of Ezr_2:32.
