Subjects in this Topic:
BEZEK.—Two places so called are perhaps to be distinguished in OT. 1. Jdg_1:5. A place attacked by Judah after Joshua’s death, probably Bezkah, a ruin W. of Jerusalem, in the lower hills. 2. 1Sa_11:8, where Saul gathered Israel before advancing on Jahesh-gilead The most likely site in this connexion is the ruin Ibzik, N.E. of Shechem, opposite Jabesh.
