A wall. (1.) A city in the mountains or hill country of Judah (Joshua 15:58), identified with Jedar, between Jerusalem and Hebron.

(2.) 1 Chronicles 4:39, the Gederah of Joshua 15:36, or the well-known Gerar, as the LXX. read, where the patriarchs of old had sojourned and fed their flocks (Genesis 20:1, Genesis 20:14, Genesis 20:15; Genesis 26:1, Genesis 26:6, Genesis 26:14).
