(Heb. with the art. hag-Gederi', הִגְּדֵרָתַי: as if from Geder; Sept. ὁΓεδωρίτης v.r. Γεδώρ, Vulg. Gederites), an epithet of Baal-hanan, David's overseer of olive and sycamore groves in the lowland of Judah (1 Chronicles 27:28); hence probably so called as being a native of GEDERAH (See GEDERAH) (q.v.) in that region (Joshua 15:36).
