<p> The city of [[Hadad]] ben [[Bedad]] (Genesis 36:35; 1 Chronicles 1:46), who smote [[Midian]] (the main body) in the field of Moab. This would be early in the time of Moab's sojourn among a branch of the Midianites. [[Moab]] was allied to Midian in the [[Mosaic]] age (Numbers 22:7), but in Gideon's time Midian was destroyed. [[Hence]] [[Moses]] naturally records the fact. </p> | |||

<p> (Hebrews Avith', עֲוִית, ruins; Sept. Γεθαίμ, Vulg. Avith), a city of the Edomites, and the native place (capital) of one of their kings, [[Hadad]] ben- Bedad; before there were kings in [[Israel]] (Genesis 36:35; 1 Chronicles 1:46, where the Hebrews text has עֲיוֹת, Ayoth', Sept, Γεθθάμ v. r. Γεθαίμ, Εὐιθ, Vulg. Avith). It would seem to have been situated at the north-eastern extremity of the range of Mount Seir, as the king is stated to have thence made a hostile incursion into the territory of his [[Moabitish]] neighbors who were leagued with the Midianites. The name may be compared with el-Ghoweitheh, a "chain of low hills" mentioned by [[Burckhardt]] (p. 375) as lying to the east of the district of Kerek in [[Moab]] </p> <p> (Knobel, Genesis, p. 257). </p> | |||
