Subjects in this Topic:
(Heb. Siphmoth', ùַׂôַîåֹú , fruitful [Furst]; Sept. Óáöåß v.r. Óáöáìώò ; Vulg. Sephamoth), one of the places in the south of Judah which David frequented during his freebooting life, and to his friends in which he sent a portion of the spoil taken from the Anmalekites (1Sa_30:28). It is not named by Eusebius or Jerome. It is perhaps the present ruined site Kasi es-Sir in a wady of the same name not far southeast of Arair, or Aroer (Palmer, Desert of the Exodus, p. 341).
