   Gilead
   From the Scriptures, ``Gilead`` means `hill of testimony` or `mound of witness`, (Genesis 31:21), a mountainous region east of the Jordan river. It is also referred to by the Aramaic name `Yegar-Sahdutha`, which carries the same meaning as the Hebrew (Gen. 31:47). From its mountainous character it is called `the mount of Gilead` (Gen. 31:25). It is called also `the land of Gilead` (Num. 32:1), and sometimes simply `Gilead` (Ps. 60:7; Gen. 37:25)....
