Kirjath-jearim (kir'jath-jç'a-rĭm), R. V., kiriath-jearim, the city of woods. One of the four cities of the Gibeonites, Joshua 9:17, situated on the border of Judah and Benjamin, Joshua 15:9; Joshua 18:14-15, but belonging to Judah, Joshua 15:60; Judges 18:12; was also called Baalah, Joshua 15:9-10, or Baale of Judah, 2 Samuel 6:2, or Kirjath-baal. Hither the ark was brought from Beth-shemesh, 1 Samuel 6:21; 1 Samuel 7:1-2, and here it remained until it was removed by David. 1 Chronicles 13:5; 2 Chronicles 1:4. The prophet Urijah, who was put to death by Jehoiakim, Jeremiah 26:20, was born here, and after the captivity the people of the city returned in numbers to it. Nehemiah 7:29.
Smith's Bible Dictionary [6]
Kir'jath-je'arim. (the city of forests). First mentioned as one of the four cities of the Gibeonites, Joshua 9:17, it next occurs as one of the landmarks of the northern boundary of Judah, Joshua 15:9, and as the point at which the western and southern boundaries of Benjamin coincided, Joshua 18:14-15, and in the last two passages, we find that it bore another, perhaps earlier, name - that of the great Canaanite deity Baal, namely Baalah and Kirjath-Baal.
At this place, the Ark remained for twenty years. 1 Samuel 7:2. At the close of that time, Kirjath-jearim lost its sacred treasure, on its removal by David to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 1 Chronicles 13:5-6; 2 Chronicles 1:4; 2 Samuel 6:2 etc. To Eusebius and Jerome, it appears to have been well known. They describe it as a village at the ninth mile between Jerusalem and Diospolis (Lydda). These requirements are exactly fulfilled in the small modern village of Kuriet-el-Enab - now usually known as Abu Gosh, from the robber chief whose headquarters it was - on the road from Jaffa and Jerusalem.

Lieut. Conder regards this as as different place from the simple KIRJATH, andwas inclined at first to locate it at Soba (Tent Work, 1:22), but finally at Khurbet Erma, two and a quarter milessouth of Chesalon or Kesla (Memoirs accompanying the Ordnance Survey, 3:46 sq., where he argues the question at length); but most geographers still incline to the position at Kuryet Enab (or simply el-Kuryet), a full description of the archaeology of which is given in the same Memoirs (3:132 sq.).
