gō´a , gō´ath ( גּעה , gō‛āh ; the King James Version; Septuagint reads ἐξ ἐκλεκτων λίθων , ex eklektō̇n lı́thōn ): A place named in describing the boundaries of Jerusalem as restored in the "days to come" ( Jeremiah 31:39 ). If Gareb is the Northeast hill, then probably Goah is to be identified with the Northwest hill, which is called by Josephus "the camp of the Assyrians" (BJ , V, vii, 3; xii, 2). See JERUSALEM .
