1. En Gedi (place name) — A compound proper place name meaning 'spring of the young goat,' referring to the oasis settlement on the western shore of the Dead Sea. Listed among the wilderness cities of Judah (Josh 15:62). David hid from Saul in the strongholds of En Gedi (1 Sam 23:29, 24:1). Jehoshaphat faced the Moabite-Ammonite coalition from En Gedi (2 Chr 20:2). Used poetically in Song of Songs 1:14 ('vineyards of En Gedi'). In Ezekiel's eschatological vision, fishermen stand from En Gedi (Ezek 47:10). The name appears split across two tokens (Ein + Gedi) in most occurrences. Transliterated: Arabic Ayn Jadi, German Ein-Gedi, French Ain-Guedi, Spanish En-Guedi, Korean En-Gedi, Hindi En-Gedi. All auto-clusters (Gedi, Ein, En, from En Gedi, and En Gedi) are parts of the same compound toponym, not different lexical senses. 10×
