Ezion-gaber (ç'zi-on-gâ'ber), or geber (gç-ber), giant's backbone. A city on the Bed Sea, the last station of the Israelites before they came to the wilderness of Zin, Numbers 33:35; Deuteronomy 2:8; the station of Solomon's navy, 1 Kings 9:26; 2 Chronicles 8:17, and of Jehoshaphat's navy. 1 Kings 22:48. Probably it was at ʾAin el-Ghudyân, about ten miles up what is now the dry bed of the Arabah. Kiepert and Robinson suppose that the northern end of the gulf anciently flowed up to this point.
