Gedor
VIEW:31 DATA:01-04-2020
GEDOR.A town of Judah (Jos_15:58; cf. 1Ch_4:4; 1Ch_4:18; 1Ch_12:7). It is generally identified with the modern Jedûr north of Beit-sur. 2. The district from which the Simeonites are said to have expelled the Hamite settlers (1Ch_4:39 ff.). The LXX [Note: Septuagint.] , however, reads Gerar, and this suits admirably as to direction. 3. A Benjamite, an ancestor of king Saul (1Ch_8:31; 1Ch_9:37). 4. 5. The eponym of two Judahite families (1Ch_4:4; 1Ch_4:18).

1. Jos_15:58. A few miles N. of Hebron. Perhaps now Jedur between Bethlehem and Hebron, two miles W. of the road.
2. A town of Benjamin, to which belonged Jeroham, father of Joelah and Zebadiah, who "of Saul's brethren of Benjamite" joined David at Ziklag (1Ch_12:7).
3. Ancestor of Saul (1Ch_8:31; 1Ch_9:37).
4. Among Judah's posterity (1Ch_4:4; 1Ch_4:18).
5. See GEDER. (1Ch_4:39.) Simeonite chiefs in Hezekiah's reign "went to the entrance of (rather as Keil, 'westward from') Gedor unto the eastern side of the valley to seek pasture for their flocks," and they dislodged the Hamites "dwelling there of old, and dwelt in their room." On the way between southern Judah and mount Seir. Septuagint reads "Gerar" (but Simeon's dwellings did not extend westward from Gerar, but were all E. of Gerar).

Ge'dor. (a wall). A town in the mountainous part of Judah, Jos_15:58, a few miles north of Hebron. Robinson discovered a Jedur halfway between Bethlehem and Hebron, about two miles west of the road.

gē?dor (גּדור, gedhōr; Codex Vaticanus, Γεδδώρ, Geddō̇r, Codex Alexandrinus, Γεδώρ, Gedō̇r):
(1) A town in the mountains of Judah, named with Halhul and Beth-zur (Jos_15:58). It seems to be referred to by Eusebius as Gadeira (Onomasticon, under the word), which he identifies with Gaidora (Jerome calls it Gadora), a village in the borders of Jerusalem, near the terebinth. It is probably represented today by Khirbet Jedūr, about 7 miles North of Hebron (PEF, III, 313, Sh XXI).
(2) Among the Benjamites who joined David at Ziklag were the sons of Jeroham of Gedor (1Ch_12:7). No trace of this name is found in the territory of Benjamin. It may be identical with (1).
(3) The Simeonites are said to have gone to the entering in of Gedor in search of pasture for their flocks. They smote and expelled the Meunim, ?and dwelt in their stead? (1Ch_4:39). Here the Septuagint reads Gerar, and this is probably correct.
(4) A family in Judah (1Ch_4:4).
(5) An ancestor of Saul (1Ch_8:31).

Ge?dor, an ancient city in the mountains of Judah (Jos_15:58), some of whose inhabitants joined David at Ziklag (1Ch_12:7). It is doubtful whether this be the same Gedor in whose fertile valley the Simeonites found good pasture for their flocks (1Ch_4:39). Dr. Robinson, traveling from Jerusalem to Gaza, came in sight of a place called Jedur, with ruins, on the brow of a mountain ridge, which he identifies with Gedor.

Gedor
(Heb. Gedor', גְּדוֹרor [in 1Ch_4:4; 1Ch_4:18] גְּדוֹ, a wall SEE GEDER; Sept. Peowp, but 1Ch_8:31 Γεδώρ, and 1Ch_12:7 Γέραρα; Vulg. Gedor), the name of one or two places, and also of a Man_1:1. An ancient city in the mountains of Judah (Jos_15:58), some of whose inhabitants joined David at Ziklag (1Ch_12:7). It was probably this town to which "Josabad the Gederathite" (q.v.) belonged (1Ch_12:4); as also "Jeroham of Gedor," whose sons Joelah and Zebadiah were among the mighty men that joined David in his difficulties at Ziklag (1Ch_12:7); for it does not appear that all in that list were "Saul's brethren of Benjamin" (compare the terms "Haruphite," "Korhite," following). SEE HAREPH. The name has the definite article to it in this latter passage (מַןִאּהִגְּדוֹר). The place was probably the same as the GEDER SEE GEDER (q.v.) of the ancient Canaanites (Jos_12:13), rebuilt as BETH-GADER SEE BETH- GADER (q.v.) by Hareph (1Ch_2:51), in conjunction with Penuel (1Ch_4:4) and Jered (1Ch_4:18). SEE MERED. It is doubtless the Gidora of the Onomasticon, between Jerusalem and Hebron. SEE GEDERAH. It is very doubtful (see below) whether this be the same Gedtor in whose fertile valley the Simeonites found good pasture for their flocks (1Ch_4:39), yet Reland regards them both as the same (Palest. page 803). Dr. Robinson, traveling from Jerusalem to Gaza, came in sight of a place called Jedur, with ruins, on the brow of a mountain ridge, which he identifies with Gedor (Researches, 2:338; also new ed. 3:283). It was also recognized by M. De Saulcy (Narrative, 2:451); comp. Schwarz (Palest. page 86). and Wilson (Lands of Bible, 1:386).
2. The above-named place (1Ch_4:39) was originally inhabited by Hamites, and its fertility induced a predatory incursion and forcible occupation by a party of Simeonites. From this it would seem to have adjoined the territory of Simeon on the south; and a writer in the Journzal of Sacred Literature (July, 1860, page 318) suggests the solution that these aborigines were Philistines, the place itself being no other than GERAR SEE GERAR (by the slight and frequent error in transcription of גדרfor גרר, which latter the Sept. appears to have actually read). Ewald had already adopted this emendation (Gesch. Isr. 1:332, note), although the term (נִחִל, wady) elsewhere applied to Gerat (q.v.) is different from that here used (הִגִּיְא, the valley).
3. A chief of the Benjamites (apparently of the house of Gibeon) resident at Jerusalem (1Ch_8:31; 1Ch_9:37). B.C. 536 or ante.
