Geba:
the hill, (2Sa 5:25 [1 Chr. 14:16, "Gibeon"]; 2Ki 23:8; Neh 11:31), a Levitical city of Benjamin (1Ki 15:22; 1Sa 13:16; 14:5, wrongly "Gibeah" in the A.V.), on the north border of Judah near Gibeah (Isa 10:29; Jos 18:24,28). "From Geba to Beersheba" expressed the whole extent of the kingdom of Judah, just as "from Dan to Beersheba" described the whole length of Palestine (2Ki 23:8). It has been identified with Gaba (Jos 18:24; Ezr 2:26; Neh 7:30), now Jeb'a, about 5 1/2 miles north of Jerusalem.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
