A city of Judah, Jos 15:50 ; where Ahithophel, David’s counselor dwelt; and where, after his treason against David, and the rejection of his counsel by Absalom, he hung himself, 2Sa 15:12 ; 17:23.<\/p>\n
(Heb. Giloh’, , exile [Gesenius] or circle [Furst]; Sept. in Joshua v. r. and , in Sam. v.r. ), the last named (after Goshen and Holon) in the first group of eleven cities in the south-western part (Keil, Joshua page 384) of the hill-country of the tribe of Judah (Jos 15:51); and afterwards the native place or residence of Ahithophel (hence called “the Gilonite” [q.v.], 2Sa 15:12; 2Sa 23:34), whence Absalom, on his way from Jerusalem to Hebron, summoned him (perhaps from a temporary banishment or disgrace at court) to join his rebellious standard (2Sa 15:12), and whither he returned to commit suicide on the failure of his colleagues to adopt his crafty counsel (2Sa 17:23). Josephus calls it Gelmon (, Ant. 7:9, 8). De Saulcy (Dead Sea, 1:453) and Schwarz (Palest. page 105) both make it to be the modern Beit-Jala, near Bethlehem; but this is rather the ancient Zelah or Zelzah (q.v.), and the scriptural notices require a different position, perhaps at Rafat, a village with extensive ruins one hour twenty minutes south of Hebron (Van de Velde, Memoir, page 252).<\/p>\n
Lieut. Conder thinks (Memoirs to the Ordnance Survey, 3:313) that this may be represented by the ruined site Jala, which the Map lays down at three and a quarter miles north-west of Hebron; but he admits that we should not expect a location so far north.<\/p>\n
exile, a city in the south-west part of the hill-country of Judah (Josh. 15:51<\/span>). It was the native place or residence of the traitor Ahithophel “the Gilonite” (Josh. 15:51<\/span>; 2 Sam. 15:12<\/span>), and where he committed suicide (17:23). It has been identified with Kurbet Jala, about 7 miles north of Hebron.<\/p>\n A town in the hills of Judah (Jos 15:51); the native place of Ahithophel (2Sa 15:12; 2Sa 17:23).<\/p>\n GILOH.A city in the southern hills of Judah (Jos 15:61), the birthplace of Ahithophel the Gilonite, the famous counsellor of David (2Sa 15:12; 2Sa 23:34). Its site is uncertain.<\/p>\n glo (, giloh): A town in the hill country of Judah mentioned along with Jattir, Socoh, Debir, Eshtemoa, etc. (Jos 15:51). Ahithophel came from here (2Sa 15:12) and is called the Gilonite (2Sa 23:34). Driver infers from this last that the original form was Gilon, not Giloh. Probably the ruins Kh Jala, in the hills 3 miles Northwest of Hulhul, mark the site (PEF, III, 313, Sh XXI).<\/p>\n [Gi’loh]<\/p>\n Town in the highlands of Judah, the native place of Ahithophel. Jos 15:51; 2Sa 15:12. Identified with ruins at Jala , 31 37′ N, 35 4′ E.<\/p>\n H1542<\/span> <\/p>\n A town in Judah.<\/p>\n Jos 15:51<\/span>; 2Sa 15:12<\/span> <\/p>\n Gi’loh. (exile). A town in the mountainous part of Judah, named in the first group with Debir and Eshtemoh, Jos 16:51, it was the native place of the famous Ahithophel. 2Sa 15:12.<\/p>\n GILOH A city of Judah, Jos 15:50 ; where Ahithophel, David’s counselor dwelt; and where, after his treason against David, and the rejection of his counsel by Absalom, he hung himself, 2Sa 15:12 ; 17:23.
