James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Gederothaim


Subjects in this Topic:

GEDEROTHAIM occurs in Jos_15:36 as one of the fourteen cities of Judah that lay in the Shephçlah. There are, however, fourteen cities without it, and it is probable that the name has arisen by dittography from the preceding Gederah. The subterfuge of the AVm [Note: Authorized Version margin.] ‘Gederah or Gederothaim’ is not permissible.
