Ad'ida. A fortified town near Jerusalem, probably the Hadid of Ezra 2:33 and referred to in 1 Maccabees 12:38.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]
Adida . A town in the Shephelah (Jos. [Note: Josephus.] Ant . XIII. vi. 5) fortified by Simon the Hasmonæan ( 1Ma 12:38; 1Ma 13:13 ). See Hadid.

( Ἀδιδά , Josephus also Τὰ Σαδιδα or Σαδδιδα , probably of Hebrew origin; Vulg. Addus), a fortified town in the tribe of Judah ( 1 Maccabees 12:38), which Simon Maccabaeus set up "in Sephela" ( Ἐν Τῇ Σεφήλᾷ ) , and made it strong with bolts and bars. Eusebius (Onomast. s.v.) says that Sephela was the name given in his time to the open country about Eleutheropolis (see Reland, Paloest. p. 187). This Adida is probably the "Adida over against the plain," where Simon Maccabaeus encamped to dispute the entrance into Judaea of Tryphon, who had treacherously seized on Jonathan at Ptolemais ( 1 Maccabees 13:13).
