  Gerar was a city of Arabia Petraea, under a king of the
  Philistines, 25 miles from Eleutheropolis beyond Daroma, in
  the south of Judah.  From ch. 19 10:19, it appears to have been
  situated in the angle where the south and west sides of Canaan
  met, and to have been not far from Gaza.  Jerome, in his
  Hebrew Traditions on Genesis, says, from Gerar to Jerusalem
  was three days' journey.  There was a wood near Gerar, spoken
  of by Theodoret; and a brook, (ch. 26 26:26,) on which was a
  monastery, noticed by Sozomen.
