On the N. of Gaash hill or mount was Timnath Serach, the city given by Israel to Joshua at his request, in the region "mount Ephraim," where also he was buried (Jos_19:49-50; Jos_24:30; Jdg_2:9).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary

Ga'ash. (earthquake). A hill of Ephraim, where Joshua was buried. The brooks or valley of Gaash, 2Sa_23:30; 1Ch_11:32, were probably at the foot of the hill.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


gā?ash (גּעשׁ, ga‛ash): First mentioned in connection with the burial place of Joshua ?in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-serah, which is in the hill-country of Ephraim, on the north (side) of the mountain of Gaash? (Jos_24:30; compare Jdg_2:9); see TIMNATH-HERES. The ?brooks,? or rather the wadies or ?watercourses? of Gaash are mentioned as the native place of Hiddai (2Sa_23:30), or Hurai (1Ch_11:32), one of David's heroes. No likely identification has been suggested. See EPHRAIM, MOUNT.

Gaash
(Heb. idעִשׁ ׃-G, a shaking or earthquake; Sept. Γααρ Γά), a "bill" (rather mount ר ם) among the mountains of Ephraim, near Timnath-serah, on the north side of which Joshua was buried (Jos_24:30; Sept. Γαλα; Jdg_2:9). Hence "the brooks of Gaash," i.e., the valleys or watercourses חִלַים -n, wadys, Sept. Ναχα… ρ Ναχα) around the mountain, which were the native place of Hiddai or Hurai, one of David's warriors (2Sa_23:30; 1Ch_11:32). Eusebius and Jerome merely state that Joshua's tomb was still a remarkable monument near Timnah in their day (Onomast. s.v. Γαασ, Gaas). SEE JOSHUA. If Timnath (q.v.) be the modern Tibnah, then Matthew Gaash is probablthe hill full of sepulchral caverns now facing it on the south. SEE EPHIAIM, MT.
