(Heb. Beyth-Gader', בֵּיתאּגָּדֵר, house of the wall; Sept. Βαιθγεδώρ v. r. Βεθγεδώρ ), a place in the tribe of Judah, of which Hareph is named as "father" or founder ( 1 Chronicles 2:51); apparently the same with the GEDER (See Geder) (q.v.) of Joshua 12:13, and probably identical also with the GEDOR (See Gedor) (q.v.) of Joshua 19:58, as it seems (from the associated names) to have been in the mountains.
