Overview
Jogbehah (also spelled Jogbehah) was a fortified city located in Gilead, east of the Jordan River, in the territory of Gad. It appears in Scripture as a strategic location during Gideon's pursuit of the Midianite army, demonstrating how God provided victory over Israel's enemies through the obedience of His chosen judge.
Key Scriptures
"Now Zebah and Zalmunna fled, and he pursued them. He captured them and routed their entire army" (Judges 8:12, NIV). The account shows Gideon's relentless pursuit: "Gideon went up by the route of those who dwell in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah" (Judges 8:11, ESV), tracking the kings as they fled.
Application
Just as Gideon pursued complete victory in faith, believers should persevere in following Christ's leading to finish what God has started in their spiritual journey, trusting His guidance through to completion.
