Dict: easton - Gibeah

easton:

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.
