Beth-gilgal was the post-exilic settlement whose people took part in celebrations around Jerusalem's restored walls. It is important because it belongs to the lived landscape of return and rejoicing. First appears in Neh 12:29.1
AI summary: Beth-gilgal matters because restoration gathered people from surrounding villages as well as from the city itself. The place belongs to the communal joy and renewed identity of Nehemiah's era.1
House of Gilgal, a place from which the inhabitants gathered for the purpose of celebrating the rebuilding of the walls on the return exile (Neh. 12:29). (See GILGAL.) 3
