<p> <strong> EDER </strong> . <strong> 1.&nbsp; [[Genesis]] 35:21 </strong> ‘And [[Israel]] journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.’ <em> ’Eder </em> means ‘a flock’; and the phrase <strong> Midgal-eder </strong> (‘flock-tower,’ cf. &nbsp; Micah 4:8 ) would have been the appellation given to a tower occupied by shepherds for the protection of their flocks against robbers (cf. &nbsp; 2 Kings 18:8 , &nbsp; 2 Chronicles 26:10 ). The tower here mentioned lay between [[Bethlehem]] and [[Hebron]] (cf. vv. 19, 27). [[Jerome]] mentions a [[Jewish]] tradition that this [[Eder]] was the site of the Temple, but himself prefers to think that it was the spot on which the shepherds received the angels’ message. <strong> 2.&nbsp; Joshua 15:21 </strong> .
