Gerar
|
|
Gerar was a city of Arabia Petrĉa, under a king of the Philistines, 25 miles from Eleutheropolis beyond Daroma, in the south of Judah. From Gen 10:19, it appears to have been situated in the angle where the south and west sides of Canaan met, and to have been not far from Gaza. Jerome, in his Hebrew Traditions on Genesis, says, from Gerar to Jerusalem was three days' journey. There was a wood near Gerar, spoken of by Theodoret; and a brook, (Gen 26:26,) on which was a monastery, noticed by Sozomen. Gen 10:19; Gen 26:1,6,20,26; 2Ch 14:13,14 |
