• Gilead, Mount

A mount occupied by Gideon before he attacked the Midianites and Amalekites. Judges 7:3 . Some suppose that 'Gilboa' should be read, but there is no MSS authority for the change. It may be that the tribe of Manasseh on the west had named one of their mountains 'Gilead,' which is not mentioned elsewhere.
