En-shemesh.The fountain of the Sun; whether a town, or simply a fountain, is uncertain.Geliloth.Geliloth is probably the same as Gilgal; though as the word may signify border or limits, some think that it is probably not the proper name of a place:
"And went forth towards the borders which are over against the ascent to Adummim."
Others render Geliloth circuits or roundings, or the hills about Jordan, {tumuli Jordanis.}
Vulgate:
{pertransit usque ad tumulos.}the stone.
