This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Bethhoron: Eusebius says that the two Beth-horons were twelve miles from Jerusalem, towards Nicopolis or Emmaus. Of which the one, called upper Beth-horon, from its situation, was built (rebuilt) by Solomon, and the other, called nether Beth-horon, was given to the Levites. Josephus places Beth-oron about 100 furlongs from Jerusalem. Dr. Clarke mentions an Arab village called Bethoor, about twelve miles from Jerusalem, a small distance from Rama, which he supposes, from its situation on a hill, to be Beth-horon the upper. Jos 18:13; 1Ki 9:15-17; 1Ch 7:24, 1Ch 7:28; 2Ch 8:5
