a walled place, ( Joshua 12:13 ), perhaps the same as Gederah or Gedor ( 15:58 ).
Gederah
(a wall ). The king of Geder was one of the thirty-one kings who were overcome by Joshua on the west of the Jordan. ( Joshua 12:13 ) (B.C. 1445.) It is possible that it may be the same place as the Geder named in ( 1 Chronicles 4:39 )
GEDER
ge'-der (gedher):
A royal city of the Canaanites taken by Joshua along with Lachish, Eglon, Gezer, Debir and Hormah (Joshua 12:13). It may be the city called "Beth-gader" in 1 Chronicles 2:51, and the birthplace of Baal-hanan, who had charge of David's olives and sycamores (27:28); unidentified.
