In the wilderness of En-gedi— The word גדי עין En-gedi signifies in the Hebrew, the kid's fountain; from whence the neighbouring region took its name, probably because there they watered their flocks. Eusebius places it on the confines of the Dead Sea, to the west. With him, it is famous for excellent balm, and with Solomon, in his song, for vineyards. Song of Solomon 1:4. It is now called An-guedi: see Thevenot's Travels, part 1: chap. 47.
