Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּדֵר (gader), meaning "wall" or "fence."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Gederah, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament. However, the concept of a "wall" or "enclosure" can be related to Greek terms such as τείχος (teichos), meaning "wall," used in various contexts in the New Testament. Usage: Gederah is used in the context of a geographical location, specifically a town in the territory of Judah. Context: Gederah is mentioned in the Old Testament as a town located in the Shephelah, the lowland region of the tribe of Judah. It is listed among the cities in the district of the Shephelah in Joshua 15:36: "Gederah, Gederothaim, fourteen cities with their villages." The name Gederah suggests a place that was fortified or enclosed by a wall, indicating its strategic or defensive significance. The town's exact historical and archaeological location remains uncertain, but it is traditionally associated with the area southwest of Jerusalem. Gederah's mention alongside other towns in the Shephelah highlights its role within the network of settlements that contributed to the agricultural and defensive infrastructure of ancient Judah.
