BAAL-GAD
ba'-al-gad ba`al gadh; Balagada, Balgad:
Joshua in his conquest reached as far north as `Baal-gad in the valley' of Lebanon, under Mount Hermon (Joshua 11:17). This definitely locates it in the valley between the Lebanons, to the West or Northwest of Hermon. It must not be confused with Baal-hermon. Conder thinks it may be represented by `Ain Jedeideh.
