<p> Shal´isha, a district in the vicinity of the mountains of [[Ephraim]] , in which appears to have been situated the city of [[Baal-Shalisha]] . This city is called by [[Eusebius]] Beth-Shalisha, and is placed by him 15 miles from | <p> 1 Samuel 9:4. Between Mount [[Ephraim]] and Shalim. Keil makes [[Shalisha]] the country round [[Baal-Shalishah]] (2 Kings 4:42), 2 Kings 4:15 [[Roman]] miles N. of Diospolis (Lydda); according to [[Eusebius]] (Onom.) probably the country W. of Jiljilia where three wadies run into the one called Kurawa, from whence came the name Shalisha , i.e. threeland. There are ruins, Sirisia, Salita, Shilta, and Kefr thilth, all modifications of the [[Hebrew]] shalish "three." In the shephelah . </p> | ||

<p> SALISSA, SHALISHA </p> <p> A city north of Jerusalem. [[Mention]] is made of it, 1 Samuel 9:4 -and probably it is the same place which is called [[Baal]] Shalisha, 2 Kings 4:42. If from Shalosh, it means third. </p> <p> SHALISHA. See Baal-Shalisha. </p> | |||

<p> [some Shali'sha] (Heb. Shalishah', שָׁלשָׁה , perhaps triangle; Sept. Σαλισσά v.r. Σελχά, a district (אֶרֶוֹ, "land") traversed by [[Saul]] when in search of the asses of [[Kish]] (1 Samuel 9:4). It apparently lay between "Mount Ephraim" and the "land of Shaalim," a specification which, with all its evident preciseness, is irrecognizable, because the extent of Mount [[Ephraim]] is so uncertain; and Shaalim, though probably near Taiyibeh, is not yet definitely fixed there. The difficulty is increased by locating [[Shalisha]] at Saris or Khirbet Saris, a village a few miles west of Jerusalem, south of [[Abu]] Gosh (Tobler; Dritte Wand. p. 178), which one have proposed. If the land of Shalisha contained, as it not impossibly did, the place called Baal-shalisha (2 Kings 4:42), which, according to the testimony of Ebuseus and [[Jerome]] (Onom. s.v. "Beth-Salisha), lay fifteen [[Roman]] (or twelve English) miles north of Lydd, then the whole disposition of Saul's route would be changed. The words Eglath Shalishiyah in Jeremiah 48:34 (A.V. "a heifer of three years old") are by some translators rendered as if denoting a place named Shalisha. But even if this be correct, it is obvious that the Shalisha of the prophet was on the coast of the [[Dead]] Sea, and therefore by no means appropriate for that of Saul. Lieut. Conder proposes (Tent [[Work]] in Palest. 2, 339) to identify Shalisha with Kefr Thilth, a ruined village on the western slope of Mount Ephraim, situated on the south side of [[Wady]] Azzun, which runs into the river [[Kanah]] (Robinson, [[Later]] Researches, p. 136, note); but there is nothing special to recommend the site except a considerable correspondence in the names. (See [[Ramah]]). </p> | |||
