Theological / Devotional

Beth-el. This would hardly be the Bethel in the tribe of Benjamin, but more likely Bethul, one of the towns in Judah’s allotment that was given to Simeon (Joshua 19:4), and not far from Ziklag.

South Ramoth. Literally, “Ramoth of the Negeb.” One of the towns given to Simeon (Joshua 19:8), but the exact location is not known.

Jattir. Thought to be the modern Khirbet ‘Attir, several miles east of the main road between Hebron and Beersheba, and some 8 mi. (12.8 km.) southwest of Maon.
