Jabesh-gilead.This place, as its name imports, was situated in Gilead, east of Jordan.
Eusebius and Jerome say it was a great town in their time, standing upon a hill, six miles south from Pella, in the way to Geresa, now Djerash.
The Wady Yabes, mentioned by Burckhardt, which empties itself into the Jordan, in the neighbourhood of Bisan or Beth-shan (see 1 Sa 31:11,) and upon which Pella was situated, (celebrated by Pliny, 1. v. c.
18, for its fine waters,) seems to have taken its name from Jabesh.
Near this spot, we must therefore look for its site; and the place called Kalaat Rabbad seems to correspond, very nearly, to the spot; though it probably still retains among the Arabs its ancient name.
1 Sam. 11:1‑3• 1And Nahash the Ammonite came up and encamped against Jabesh-Gilead. And all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
 2And Nahash the Ammonite said to them, On this condition will I treat with you, that I thrust out all your right eyes, and lay it for a reproach upon all Israel.
 3And the elders of Jabesh said to him, Allow us seven days, and we will send messengers into all the districts of Israel; and if there be no man to deliver us, we will come out to thee. (1 Sam. 11:1‑3)
;
1 Sam. 31:11‑13• 11And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead heard of what the Philistines had done to Saul,
 12all the valiant men arose and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Jabesh, and burned them there.
 13And they took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk at Jabesh, and fasted seven days. (1 Sam. 31:11‑13)
;
2 Sam. 2:5‑6• 5And David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-Gilead, and said to them, Blessed be ye of Jehovah, that ye have shewn this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him!
 6And now Jehovah shew kindness and faithfulness to you; and I also will requite you this good, because ye have done this thing. (2 Sam. 2:5‑6)
