[some Shar'uhen] (Heb. Sharuchen', שָׁרוּחֶן, Refuge Of Grace ; Sept. ἀγροὶ αὐτῶν [probably reading שׂדיהן ]), a town originally in Judah, afterwards set off to Simeon ( Joshua 19:6); hence in the Negeb, or "south country." (See Judah). It seems to be the same elsewhere called SHILHIM ( Joshua 15:32), or SHAARAIM ( 1 Chronicles 4:31), but probably by erroneous transcription, in the latter case at least. Knobel (Exeg. Handb. on Joshua 15:32) suggests, as a probable identification, Tell Sheri 'Ah, about ten miles west of Bir-es-Seba, at the head of Wady Sheri'ah (the "watering place"). Wilton locates it near Ruhaibah (Rehoboth), but his reasons are uncritical (The Negeb, p. 217 sq.). (See Simeon).
