Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Gareb, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: Gareb is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, specifically as a geographical location. Context: Gareb is mentioned in the context of a hill in the city of Jerusalem. It appears in the book of Jeremiah, where it is referenced as a landmark in the description of the boundaries of the city. The specific verse is Jeremiah 31:39, which states: "The measuring line will once again stretch out straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn toward Goah." This indicates that Gareb was a notable topographical feature in the ancient landscape of Jerusalem, serving as a point of reference for the city's expansion or delineation. The exact location and significance of Gareb in the historical and geographical context of Jerusalem remain subjects of scholarly discussion, but it is generally understood to be part of the city's western boundary.
