GEDOR
GEDOR (
Γεδώρ), one of the towns of Judah situated in the hill country. (
Josh. 15.58; 1
Chron. 4.39.) Eusebius mentions a village named
Κέδους, 10 miles distant from Diospolis (Lydda), on the road to Eleutheropolis (
Onomast. s. v.), which may possibly be identical with “a place with ruins on the brow of the high mountain ridge . . called
Jedûr, which is doubtless the same as the Gedor of the mountains of Judah.” (
Biblical Res. vol. ii. p. 338.)
