<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.
