the identification of <source id="s565ee7" article="Gedor">Zondervan Encyclopedia of the Bible (2010) (Gedor)</source> with "Khirbet Gadeirah, north of <a data-source="s7cc8b2" data-wikidata="Q6191988" href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6191988">el-Jib</a>" is possibly <modern id="m896140">Jedireh</modern>, as it’s located just northeast. However, it’s a modern settlement, not a ruin. <modern id="m8f16f8">Khirbet Judeira</modern>, on the other hand, which <source id="s876c69" article="Gedor">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (1979) (Gedor)</source> mentions as a possibility, is 10km west-northwest, not north. Other sources use <ancient id="aede336">Gibeon</ancient> (i.e., <modern id="mf55105">El Jib</modern>) as a reference when referring to Jedireh but don’t call it a khirbet. <span data-page="22"><a data-source="sb4d8de" href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/1356268">Demsky, Genealogy of Gibeon (1971)</a> (page 22)</span>, from 1971, supports the identification with Jedireh ("Perhaps Judeira, 3 kilometers northeast of El-Jib"); <source id="s565ee7" article="Gedor">Zondervan Encyclopedia of the Bible (2010) (Gedor)</source>’s identification carries over unchanged from <source id="sd568aa" article="Gedor">Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia of the Bible (1975) (Gedor)</source>; however, <a data-source="sd568aa" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/resources/encyclopedia-of-the-bible/Gederah">Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia of the Bible (1975)</a> mentions both "modern Jedireh and Khirbet Gudeira," so on balance I think <source id="s565ee7" article="Gedor">Zondervan Encyclopedia of the Bible (2010) (Gedor)</source> is probably referring to Khirbet Judeira
