The Book of Judges ends with the story of the fraternal war between Benjamin and the other Israelite tribes, following the ravishing of the concubine of a Levite at the hands of the people of Gibeah in Benjamin. The place name appears in various formulations, e.g. “the Gibeah” (Judg 19:13), “Gibeah which belongs to Benjamin” (Judg 19:14), “Gibeah of Benjamin” (1 Sam 13:2), “Gibeah of the Benjaminites” (2 Sam 23:29), “Gibeah of Saul” (1 Sam 11:4, 15:34; Isa 10:29), “Gibeath Elohim (of God)” (1 Sam 10:5; but LXX “the high place/hill of God”).
