(gi' dahm) Place name meaning, “cleared land.” Place where tribes of Israel punished tribe of Benjamin by killing 2,000 of Benjamin's soldiers (Judges 20:45 ) for grossly mistreating a traveling Levite and his concubine. REB follows some scholars in omitting Gidom. No one knows its exact location between Gibeah and Bethel.
