Gihon , pronounced (gI'hon). 1. One of the four rivers of Eden.
2. Spring, in the Qidron valley.
The Gihon-yet another name for the Blue Nile and one with strong biblical connotations.
To the people in these villages set smack along the rim of the gorge, the Nile was one of the four rivers
that flowed out of Eden at the beginning of the world. It was the river in
Genesis that "compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia,"
and in its waters lived a king also named Gihon.
