Gudgodah

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

gud - gō´da ( גּדגּדה , gudhgōdhāh ): A place in the wilderness journeyings ( Deuteronomy 10:7 ), corresponding to Hor-haggidgad in Numbers 33:32 . Septuagint in each case renders (Γαδγάδ , Gadgád ). The site cannot now be identified; but there may be an echo of the ancient name in that of Wādy Guḍāghiḍ , a confluent of Wādy Jerāfeh , which comes down from et Tı̄h into the ‛Arabah nearly due West of Petra. There are difficulties, however, as the consonants do not correspond.
