<p> '''Cherith''' (''kç'rith),'' ''gorge,'' The Brook, a brook or torrent "before Jordan" where the prophet [[Elijah]] was hid. &nbsp;1 Kings 17:5. Robinson and several others identify it with [[Wady]] Kelt, a swift, brawling stream, 20 yards wide and three feet deep, running into the [[Jordan]] from the west, a little south of Jericho. Some identify it with Wady Fusail, a little farther north, and yet others think it was some stream on the other, or eastern, side of the Jordan. </p>
