Strong's Lexicon Gederothayim: Gederothaim Original Word: גְּדֵרֹתַיִם Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root גָּדֵר (gader), meaning "wall" or "fence," with the dual suffix indicating "two." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Gederothayim in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a New Testament counterpart. Usage: Gederothayim is a place name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically mentioned as a town in the territory of Judah. The name suggests a location characterized by enclosures or walls, possibly indicating a fortified settlement or a place with significant agricultural activity involving fenced areas. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, towns and cities often had walls or enclosures for protection against invaders and wild animals. The dual form of the name Gederothayim may imply a town with two significant enclosures or a notable double wall. The region of Judah, where Gederothayim is located, was known for its agricultural productivity, and such enclosures would have been important for protecting crops and livestock.
