2 Samuel 14:2
to Tekoah Tekoah was a city of Judah, situated, according to Eusebius and Jerome, twelve miles south of Jerusalem. Josephus says it was not far from the castle of Herodium; and Jerome (Prologue to Amos) says it stood on a hill six miles south from Bethlehem. Dr. Poccocke places it at the same distance; and says there are still considerable ruins on the top of a hill, which is about half a mile long and a furlong broad. 2Chr 11:6, 2Chr 20:20; Neh 3:5, Neh 3:27; Jer 6:1; Amos 1:1, Tekoa mourning 2Sam 11:26; Ruth 3:3; Ps 104:15; Eccl 9:8; Matt 6:17
