Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary


GEDER.—An unidentified Canaanitish town, whose king was amongst those conquered by Joshua (Jos_12:13 only). It is very probably identical with Beth-gader of 1Ch_2:51. In 1Ch_27:28 Baal-hanan, who had charge of David’s olives and sycomores, is called the Gederite, which may be a gentilic name derived from Geder, although some prefer to derive it from Gederah (wh. see).

One of the 31 kings defeated by Joshua W. of Jordan (Jos_12:13). In the extreme S. Possibly the Simeonite GEDOR (1Ch_4:39).

Ge'der. (a wall). The king of Geder was one of the thirty-one kings, who were overcome by Joshua, on the west of the Jordan. Jos_12:13. (B.C. 1445). It is possible that it may be the same place, as the Geder named in 1Ch_4:39.
Smith's Bible Dictionary

gē?dẽr (גּדר, gedher): A royal city of the Canaanites taken by Joshua along with Lachish, Eglon, Gezer, Debir and Hormah (Jos_12:13 f). It may be the city called ?Beth-gader? in 1Ch_2:51, and the birthplace of Baal-hanan, who had charge of David's olives and sycamores (1Ch_27:28); unidentified.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
PRINTER 1915.


Ge?der. This word signifies a wall, enclosure, or fortified place, and must be understood in this sense in the ensuing names. Geder itself was the name of an ancient town of the Canaanites, in the plain country of Judah (Jos_12:13), and was perhaps the same as Gederah.

Geder
(Heb. id. גֶּדֶר, Sept. Γάδερ), a name signifying a wall (e.g. of a court, garden, sheepfold, etc., Proverbs 24, 31; Eze_42:10), hence an enclosed or fortified place, and thus the basis of several names of castellated towns (e.g. Gederah, Gedor, Gadara, Gederoth, etc.); used once only (Jos_12:13) in this simple form as that of one of the thirty- one ancient royal towns of the Canaanites, whose kings were defeated by Joshua. It is mentioned between Debir and Hormah; but, as the localities in that list are not strictly in geographical order, it may be identified with the GEDOR SEE GEDOR (q.v.) in the mountains of Judah (Jos_15:58), and with the BETH-GADER SEE BETH-GADER (q.v.) of 1Ch_2:51. The notices of Schwarz (Palest. pages 86, 104) are quite confused.
