Tirzah; an ancient and royal city, Jos_12:24, in a pleasant place, Son_6:4, where the kings of Israel had a palace, 1Ki_15:33 16:6,8,15,23; whither Jeroboam was removed from Shechem, either for his pleasure, or for his son’s recovery, by the healthfulness of the place.
To the threshold of the door, to wit, of the king’s house, which probably was upon or by the wall of the city, and near the gate, which was the place of judicature. See 1Ki_14:12.
