Gibeath (1)

gibe-ath (, gibhath): This is the status constructus of the foregoing (Gibeah). It is found in several compound place-names.

(1) Gibeath-ha-araloth ( , gibhath haaraloth). English Versions of the Bible tanslations literally, hill of the foreskins; but the margins suggest the proper name. Here the Israelites were circumcised after the passage of the Jordan (Jos 5:3). The place was therefore between that river and Jericho.

(2) Gibeath Phinehas ( , gibhath pnehas), the burial place of Eleazar the son of Aaron in Mt. Ephraim (Jos 24:33 the King James Version a hill that pertained to Phinehas, the Revised Version (British and American) the hill of Phinehas, the Revised Version, margin Gibeah of Phinehas). Conder would identify it with ‘Awertah in the plain of Makhneh, not far from Nablus, where the Samaritans show the tombs of Phinehas and Eleazar, Abishuah and Ithamar (Tent Work, 41 f). The tomb of Eleazar is 18 ft. long, plastered all over and shaded by a splendid terebinth. Gurin places it at Jbia, 3 miles North of Karyat el-Anab (Judee, III, 37 f; Samarie, 106ff). There is no certainty.

(3) Gibeath hammoreh ( , gibhath ha-moreh), a hill on the North side of the valley from the camp of Gideon, beside. which lay the Midianites (Jdg 7:1, English Versions of the Bible the hill of Moreh; the Hebrew is literally, hill of the teacher). It is probably identical with Jebel Duhy, which rises on the North of the Vale of Jezreel. Moore (Judges, 200) mistakenly calls the mountain Nab Dah. This is, of course, the name of the prophet whose shrine crowns the hill. See MOREH.

(4) Gibeath ha-Elohim ( , gibhath ha-‘elohm), the place where Saul, after leaving Samuel, met the company of prophets, and prophesied with them (1Sa 10:5, 1Sa 10:10). It is defined as the place where is the garrison (or pillar) of the Philistines. This may be intended to distinguish it from GIBEAH (2), with which it is often identified. In this case it may be represented by the modern Ramallah, about 10 miles North of Jerusalem. See also TABOR.

(5) Gibeath ha-Hachilah (1Sa 23:19; 1Sa 26:1) is identical with HACHILAH (which see).

(6) Gibeath Ammah (2Sa 2:24) is identical with AMMAH (which see).

(7) Gibeath Gareb (Jer 31:39) is identical with GAREB (which see).
