It was well populated.<\/p>\n Neh 11:29<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n ‘And in Zorah, and in Jarmuth,’<\/p>\n Moving northward to the northern Shephelah (lowlands), west of Jerusalem, we come to Zorah and Jarmuth. Zorah was in the lowland hills of Judah (Jos 15:33<\/span>), and associated with the stories about Samson (Jdg 13:2<\/span>). It was possibly the Zarkha of the Amarna letters. It was north of Azekah. Jarmuth was five kilometres (three miles) south of Beth-shemesh, eighteen miles west of Jerusalem. It was previously a large Amorite city before the conquest (Jos 10:3<\/span>; Jos 15:35<\/span>).<\/p>\n Neh 11:30<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n ‘Zanoah, Adullam, and their villages, Lachish and its fields, Azekah and its towns. So they encamped from Beer-sheba to the valley of Hinnom.’<\/p>\n Zorah, Jarmuth, Zanoah, Adullam and Azekah are all names echoing Joshua. They are seen as close together, along with a number of other towns, in Jos 15:33-35<\/span>. These may well have indicated the western border of the Province of Judah, or may even have been outside that border. Lachish was in the lowlands further south and outside the border.<\/p>\n For Zanoah see Neh 3:13<\/span>; Jos 15:34<\/span>. It was three kilometres (two miles) south of Beth-shemesh. The men of Zanoah were named as involved in the building of the walls (Neh 3:13<\/span>). Adullam was a former Canaanite city (Jos 12:15<\/span>), later fortified by Rehoboam (2Ch 11:7<\/span>) and referred to by Mic 1:15<\/span>. It was midway between Jerusalem and Lachish. Lachish was a large Judean city in the southern Shephelah, outside the new Province of Judah, forty kilometres (thirty miles) south west of Jerusalem. Its capture by the Assyrians was seen as a notable achievement (their having failed to capture Jerusalem) and was shown on a relief sculpture in the palace of Nineveh. Azekah was in the territory of Judah (Jos 15:35<\/span>) and was north of Lachish, both cities being referred to in the Lachish letters as resisting the Assyrian invasion (see also Jer 34:7<\/span>) before finally succumbing (Isa 37:8<\/span>). It was seen in Joshua as being on the extremity of Judah (Jos 10:10-11<\/span>; compare 1Sa 17:1<\/span>), and was one of Rehoboam’s fortified border cities.<\/p>\n dwelt. = encamped. <\/p>\n Enrimmon: Rimmon is placed by Eusebius in the south of Judah, 16 miles south of Eleutheropolis.
