Lo-Debar

VIEW:27 DATA:01-04-2020
LO-DEBAR.—A place in Gilead, near to, and apparently east from, Mahanaim. It was the retreat of Mephibosheth till he was summoned to court by David (2Sa_9:4-5). It is mentioned also upon the occasion of David’s flight to the east of the Jordan (2Sa_17:27). The site has not been recovered. It is perhaps the same as Lidebir of Jos_13:26.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


lō?dḗ-bar, lṓ-dē?bar (דבר לו, lō dhebhār): A place in Gilead where dwelt Machir, son of Ammiel, who sheltered Mephibosheth, son of Saul, after that monarch's death (2Sa_9:4), until he was sent for by David. This same Machir met David with supplies when he fled to Gilead from Absalom (2Sa_17:27 f). Possibly it is the same place as Lidebir in Jos_13:26 (Revised Version margin). No certain identification is possible; but Schumacher (Northern ‛Ajlūn, 101) found a site with the name Ibdar about 6 1/2 miles East of Umm Ḳeis, North of the great aqueduct, which may possibly represent the ancient city. Lidebir, at least, seems to be placed on the northern boundary of Gilead. The modern village stands on the southern shoulder of Wādy Samar. There is a good spring to the East, a little lower down, while ancient remains are found in the neighborhood.

Lo-debar
(Heb. Lo-Debar, לאֹ דְבָר, no pasture, 2Sa_17:27, Sept. Λωδαβάρ; written לוֹ דְבָרin 2Sa_9:4-5, Septuag. Λωδαβάρ), a town apparently in Gilead, not far from Mahanaim, the residence of Ammiel, whose son Machir entertained Mephibosheth. and aftervards sent refreshments to David (2Sa_9:4-5; 2Sa_17:27). It is probably the same with the place (see Reland, Palest. page 875) called DEBIR (or rather Lidbir', לַדְכַר, Jos_13:26; Sept. Λεβίρ, Vulg. Dabir; for thelis not a prefix, but a part of the name [see Keil's Comment. ad loc.], which should probably be pointed לֹדְבָרLod-ebar'), on the (north-eastern) border of Gad, but in which direction from Mahanaim is uncertain, perhaps north- west (in which general direction the associated names appear to proceed), and not far from et-Taryibell.
