Fausset's Bible Dictionary [1]

("valley".) 2 Samuel 2:24. Facing Ammah, "by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon."

Holman Bible Dictionary [2]

2 Samuel 2:24

Hitchcock's Bible Names [3]

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [4]

GIAH . Named in the account of Joab’s pursuit of Abner ( 2 Samuel 2:24 ). Its situation is quite unknown; it is even doubtful whether the mention of Giah is not due to textual corruption.

Morrish Bible Dictionary [5]

Place mentioned only in describing the position of the hill Ammah. 2 Samuel 2:24 .

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [6]

gı̄´a ( גּיח , gı̄aḥ ): An unidentified place on the route followed by Abner in his flight, pursued by Joab ( 2 Samuel 2:24 ). Septuagint renders Gaı́ , corresponding to the Hebrew , "valley." The form gı̄aḥ may be due to corruption of the text.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [7]

(Heb. Gi'acl, גִּיחִ , a breaking forth sc. of a fountain; Sept. Γιέ v.r. Γαί, Vulg. simply vallis), a place (probably marked by a spring) opposite the hill Ammah, on the road to the "wilderness (east?) of Gibeon," where Joab and Abishai ceased at sun-down from the pursuit of Abner after the death of Asahel (1 Samuel 2:24). It is perhaps identical with the " pool" mentioned in 1 Samuel 2:13, although in that case the parties must have become far separated in the rout, since they would thus have returned to the spot where the battle began. (See Gibeon).
