Gibeon, Gibeonite

Facts

Gibeon was a city and a region in the land of Canaan where the Gibeonites lived.

  • "Gibeonite" means "someone from the region called Gibeon."
  • The Gibeonites had heard about how the Israelites had destroyed Jericho, and they were afraid. So the Gibeonites came to the leaders of Israel and pretended to be people from a far-away country.
  • Israel made a treaty with the Gibeonites and did not destroy them.
