En Gedi

Definition:

En Gedi was the name of a city in the wilderness of Judah southeast of Jerusalem.

  • En Gedi was located on the western bank of the Salt Sea.
  • Part of its name means "fountain," referring to a spring of water that flows down from the city into the sea.
  • En Gedi was known for having beautiful vineyards and other fertile land, probably due to the continual watering by the fountain of water.
  • There were strongholds in En Gedi which David fled to when he was being chased by King Saul.
