722. Magedan. Matthew 15:39; K. 134:18; L. 277:81.
No Gospel section division indicated here. Textual variant Magaidanē (Greek).
Summary of New Testament information. In the New Testament Magedan, Magdala and Dalmanoutha are all related. The Hebrew sound Migdol (K. 130:9) is suspected as background. In Matthew 15:39 there is a region of Magadan or Magdala. In Mark 8:10 it is a district of Dalmanutha located by the Onomasticon as near Gerasa (K. 64:2) but in New Testament times it seems to be in Galilea. The New Testament site is on the west side of the Sea at Mejdel . What site Eusebius had intended is unknown. This is one of three references to Mark in the Onomasticon (K. 64:4 and K. 74:13).

Outside the normal limits of the Holy Land for the Onomasticon . The second city, one of the Jews, is the only contemporary Jewish city called a polis in the Onomasticon (cf. Note on K. 22:9 and Appendix IX). This probably is nawa 36 miles from Capitolias in the pilgrim itineraries. The Gōnia is part of the Hauron but not clearly identified.
In Hebrew Questions Jerome notes the derivation of the name Nineve and identifies it as Rooboth (K. 142:11).
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Ninive beauty or bud of beauty" (69).
