GIBEAH - G>@ - a word employed in the Bible to denote a hill. Like most words of this kind it gave its name to several towns and places in Palestine, which would doubtless be generally on or near a hill. They are
Gibeah, a city in the mountain district of Judah, named with Maon and the southern Carmel, kjv@Joshua:15:57) and comp. 1Chr 2:49 etc. Gibeah of Benjamin first appears in the tragical story of the Levite and his concubine. kjv@Judges:19:20) It was then a "city," with the usual open street or square, kjv@Judges:19:15-17 kjv@Judges:19:20) and containing 700 "chosen men," ch. kjv@Judges:20:15) probably the same whose skill as slingers is preserved in the next verse. In many particulars Gibeah agrees very closely with Tuleil-el
- Ful , a conspicuous eminence just four mlles north of Jerusalem, to the right of the road. We next meet with Glbeah of Benjamin during the Philistine wars of Saul and Jonathan. ( kjv@1Samuel:13:15-16) It now bears its full title. As "Gibeah of Benjamin" this place is referred to in (2 Samuel 23:29) (comp. 1Chr 11:31), and as "Gibeah" it is mentioned by Hosea, kjv@Hosea:5:8 kjv@Hosea:9:9 kjv@Hosea:10:9 ) but it does not again appear in the history. It is, however, almost without doubt identical with Gibeah of Saul. This is not mentioned as Saul’s city till after his anointing, ( kjv@1Samuel:10:26) when is said to have gone "home" to Gibeah. In the subsequent narrative the town bears its full name. ch ( kjv@1Samuel:11:4) Gibeah in Kirjath-jearim was no doubt a hill in that city, and the place in which the ark remained from the time of its return by the Philistines till its removal by David. (2 Samuel kjv@6:3-4) comp. kjv@1Samuel:7:1-2 Gibeah in the field, named only in kjv@Judges:20:31) as the place to which one of the "highways" led from Gibeah of Benjamin. It is probably the same as Geba. The "meadows of Gaba" (Authorized Version Gibeah), kjv@Judges:20:33) have no connection with the "field," the Hebrew word being entirely different.

Gibeah @ a hill or hill-town, "of Benjamin" ( kjv@1Samuel:13:15), better known as "Gibeah of Saul" (11:4; kjv@Isaiah:10:29). It was here that the terrible outrage was committed on the Levite's concubine which led to the almost utter extirpation of the tribe of Benjamin kjv@Judges:19; 20), only six hundred men surviving after a succession of disastrous battles. This was the birthplace of Saul, and continued to be his residence after he became king ( kjv@1Samuel:10:26 kjv@1Samuel:11:4 kjv@1Samuel:15:34 ). It was reckoned among the ancient sanctuaries of Palestine (10:26; 15:34; 23:19; 26:1; kjv@2Samuel:21:6-10), and hence it is called "Gibeah of God" ( kjv@1Samuel:10:5, R.V. marg.). It has been identified with the modern Tell el
- Ful (i.e., "hill of the bean"), about 3 miles north of Jerusalem.

Gibeah of Judah @ kjv@Joshua:15:57), a city in the mountains of Judah, the modern Jeba, on a hill in the Wady Musurr, about 7 1/2 miles west-south-west of Bethlehem.

Gibeah of Phinehas @ kjv@Joshua:15:57, R.V. marg.), a city on Mount Ephraim which had been given to Phinehas (24:33 "hill," A.V.; R.V. marg. and Heb., "Gibeah."). Here Eleazar the son of Aaron was buried. It has been identified with the modern Khurbet Jibia, 5 miles north of Guphna towards Shechem.

Gibeah-haaraloth @ kjv@Joshua:5:3, marg.), hill of the foreskins, a place at Gilgal where those who had been born in the wilderness were circumcised. All the others, i.e., those who were under twenty years old at the time of the sentence at Kadesh, had already been circumcised.
