Nadabatha [1]
( Ναδαβάθ v.r. Γαβαδάν ; Syriac, Nobot; Vulg. Madaba), "a place from which the bride was conducted by the children of Jambri (q.v.) when Jonathan and Simon attacked them ( 1 Maccabees 9:37). Josephus (Ant. 13:1, 4) gives the name as Gabath ( Γαβαθά ). Jerome's conjecture (in the Vulgate) can hardly be admitted, because Medeba was the city of the Jambrites (see 1 Maccabees 9:36) to which the bride was brought, not that from which she came. That Nadabatha was on the east of Jordan is most probable; for though, even to the time of the Gospel narrative, by 'Chanaaiites' — to which the bride in this case belonged — is signified Phoenicians, yet we have the authority (such as it is) of the Book of Judith ( 1 Maccabees 9:3) for attaching that name especially to the people of Moab and Ammon; and it is not probable that when the whole country was in such disorder a wedding Cortege would travel for so great a distance as from Phoenicia to Medeba. On the east of Jordan the only two names that occur as possible are Neboby Eulsebius and Jerome written lNabo and i Na Bau and Nabathcea. Compare the lists of places round es-Salt, in Robinson, 1st ed. 3:167-70." (See Gabatiha).
