International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]
tar´a - la ( תּראלה , tar'ălāh ; Codex Vaticanus Θαρεήλα , Thareḗla ; Codex Alexandrinus Θαραλά , Tharalá ): A town in the territory of Benjamin named between Irpeel and Zelah ( Joshua 18:27 ). Eusebius, Onomasticon (s.v. "Therama") simply says it was in the tribe of Benjamin. In the times of Eusebius and Jerome, therefore, the site was already lost, and has not since been covered.
