Gedor

Gedor is a Hebrew name used for at least two places and a man in the Old Testament. It names a town in the hill country of Judah between Jerusalem and Hebron, whose founding lineage the Chronicler traces through Hur and Ephrathah (Joshua 15:58; 1 Chronicles 4:4, 18), and a second place, likely near Gerar, where a band of Simeonites drove out its peaceful, prosperous residents to make room for their flocks in the days of Hezekiah (1 Chronicles 4:39-41). The same name also belongs to a man in the genealogy of Benjamin connected to the family of Saul (1 Chronicles 8:31; 9:37).
