James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Shalishah


Subjects in this Topic:

SHALISHAH.—A region through which Saul travelled with his servant in search of the lost asses (1Sa_9:4). The route as given probably describes a circuitous journey, to the N.W., the E., and finally S. through Benjamin. This would place the ‘land of Shalishah’ somewhere on the hills W. of Shiloh. Baal-shalishah (2Ki_4:42) was doubtless a place in the same district.
