En-shemesh.

The fountain of the Sun; whether a town, or simply a fountain, is uncertain.

Geliloth.

Geliloth is probably the same as Gilgal; though as the word may signify border or limits, some think that it is probably not the proper name of a place:

"And went forth towards the borders which are over against the ascent to Adummim."

Others render Geliloth circuits or roundings, or the hills about Jordan, {tumuli Jordanis.} Vulgate: {pertransit usque ad tumulos.} the stone.
