Joshua 15:33

Joshua 19:41

2 Chronicles 11:10

(hornet), a town in the allotment of the tribe of Dan (Joshua 19:41). It is previously mentioned (Joshua 15:33) in the catalogue of Judah, among the places in the district of the Shefelah (Authorized Version “Zoreah”). It was the residence of Manoah and the native place of Samson. It is mentioned among the places fortified by Rehoboam (2 Chronicles 11:10). It is perhaps identical with the modern village of Sur’ah.
