<p> '''''esh''''' -'''''tē̇''''' -'''''mō´a''''' , '''''esh´tē̇''''' -'''''mō''''' -'''''a''''' ( אשׁתּמוע , <i> ''''''eshtemōa‛''''' </i> ): A L evitical city in the hill country of [[Judah]] ( Joshua 21:14; 1 Chronicles 6:57 ); [[Eshtemoh]] ( אשׁתּמה , <i> ''''''eshtemōh''''' </i> , Joshua 15:50 ). In James 4:17 , 19, [[Eshtemoa]] is said to be a Maacathite and "son" of Ishbah. [[David]] after routing the [[Amalekites]] sent a present to his friends in (among other places) Eshtemoa ( 1 Samuel 30:28 ). It is now <i> '''''es''''' </i> - <i> '''''Semū‛a''''' </i> , a considerable village of evident antiquity some 8 miles South of Hebron. </p>
<p> [[Eshtemoh]] (&nbsp;Joshua 15:50). Allotted with its suburbs to the priests (&nbsp;Joshua 21:14; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 6:57; compare &nbsp;1 Chronicles 4:17). Frequented by David during his wanderings. Accordingly, to his friends there he sent presents of the [[Amalekite]] spoil (&nbsp;1 Samuel 30:28; &nbsp;1 Samuel 30:31). Now Semu'a, seven miles S. of Hebron. [[Eshtemoa]] was son of Ishbah; [[Mered]] was husband of [[Jehudijah]] (the Jewess), by whose descendants, Gedor, Socho, and Zanoah, near Eshtemoa, were founded. The town Eshtemoa was founded by the descendants of Bithiah, Pharaoh's daughter, the [[Egyptian]] wife of Mered. (See [[Bithiah]] .) A large stone (Hajr-el-Sakhain) stands on the N. road to the village Semu'a at a distance of 3,000 cubits, the [[Levitical]] extent of suburbs and the boundary of the village possessions to this day (Palestine Exploration). How the [[Holy]] Land confirms the Holy Book! </p>
