SCRIPTURE

"and the border reached to Tabor, and Shahazumah, and Beth-shemesh; and the goings out of their border were at the Jordan: sixteen cities with their villages." — Joshua 19:22 (ASV)

Tabor (? Deburieh, sheet 6). Beth-shemesh (Ain Esh-shemsiyeh, near Beth-shean). The rest are not identified. Of these places, Shunem and Jezreel are famous in later history: Shunem especially in the story of Elisha (2 Kings 4:0).
