2 Kings 25:23 (King James Version)
And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.

And when: Jeremiah 40:7-9 Jeremiah 40:11 Jeremiah 40:12
Mizpah: There were several places of the name of Mizpah, or Mizpeh, and we do not certainly know which of them this was; but it is probable that it was that situated east of Jordan, in the mountains of Gilead, ( Genesis 31:49, ,)and most contiguous to Babylon; and therefore the most proper for the residence of Gedaliah.
