<p> [[A]] city [[E.]] of Jordan, fortified by [[Gad]] (&nbsp;Numbers 32:25). [[Jaazer]] (Jazer, one in Gilead) and Jogbehah, [[N.W.]] of Amman, between it and Es Salt, now Jebeiha, a ruin seven miles to the [[N.E.,]] formed the second group of [[Gadite]] settlements. The first group was headed by Dibon. [[Chemosh]] Gad ("he whose good fortune is Chemosh") the father of [[Mesha]] was a Dibonite. The third Gadite settlement lay in the [[Jordan]] valley, [[W.]] of the second group, [[Beth]] Nimrah, etc. (&nbsp;Numbers 32:33-36). </p>

<p> (Heb. Yogbah', יָגְבִּהּ, only with ה paragogic, יָגְבְּהָה, ''lofty;'' Sept. Ι᾿εγεβαά, but ὕψωσαν αὐτάς in Numbers; Vulg. ''Jegbaa'' ), a place mentioned (between [[Jazer]] and Beth-nimrah) among the "fenced cities and folds for sheep" rebuilt by the [[Gadites]] (&nbsp;Numbers 32:35). It lay on the route of [[Gideon]] when pursuing the nomadic Midianites, near Nobah, beyond Penuel, in the direction of [[Karkor]] (&nbsp;Judges 8:11). These notices correspond sufficiently with the locality of the ruined village ''El-Jebeiha'' (Robinson's ''Researches'' , 3, Append. p. 168), laid down on Robinson's and Zimmerman's maps on the edge of the desert east of Jebel el-Fukeis. </p>

<p> ''''' jog´bḗ ''''' - ''''' ha ''''' ( יגבּחה , <i> ''''' yoghbecḥāh ''''' </i> ): [[A]] city in Gilead assigned to Gad and fortified by that tribe (&nbsp; Numbers 32:35 ). It lay on the line along which Gideon chased the Midianites (&nbsp;Judges 8:11 ), and the indication there leaves no doubt that it is represented today by <i> '''''Ajbeihāt''''' </i> . The name attaches to 3 groups of ruins which date from Roman times. The position is about 7 miles Northwest of <i> '''''‛Ammān''''' </i> , and about midway between that city and the town of <i> '''''es''''' </i> - <i> '''''Salt''''' </i> . It stands 3,468 ft. above the level of the Mediterranean. </p> <p> Oliphant, <i> Land of Gilead </i> , 232; Baedeker-Socin, Palestine. </p>
