| <p> Ne'zib. (garrison, pillar). A city of Judah, in Joshua 15:43 only, in the district of the Shefelah, or lowland, one of the same group with [[Keilah]] and Mareshah. To [[Eusebius]] and Jerome, it was evidently known. They place it on the road between [[Eleutheropolis]] and Hebron, seven or nine miles from the former, and there it still stands under the almost identical name of Beit Nusib or Chirbeh Nasib. </p> | | Nezib <ref name="term_52712" /> |
|
| | <p> The modern representative of this site, Beit-Nusib, is laid down as a ruin on the Ordnance Map, eight miles north-west of Hebron, and described in the accompanying Memoirs (3:324) as consisting of "cisterns and caves, foundations and ruined walls, with a few pillar shafts.... The buildings seem to date back to the Byzantine period, judging from the character of the masonry; but the cisterns and caves are perhaps earlier." </p> |

| <p> ("garrison".) A city in the shephelah or "lower hills" of [[Judah]] (Joshua 15:43). Between [[Eleutheropolis]] and Hebron. Now Beit Nusib or Chirbeh Nasib, on an elevation at the S. of wady es Sur, in the region of the hills between the mountains and the plain. The accuracy of [[Scripture]] in its geographical hints is remarkable. </p>

| <p> (Heb. Netsib', נְצַיב, fixed, or a garrison [as in 1 Samuel 10:5; 1 Samuel 13:3-4; 1 Samuel 1 Clhron. 11:6]; Sept. Νασίβ, v. r. Νεσείβ ), a city in the [[Shephelah]] or maritime plain of Judah; mentioned between [[Ashnah]] and [[Keilah]] (Joshua 15:43), in the group in the south-western part of the hilly region (Keil, Comment. ad loc.). [[Eusebius]] and [[Jerome]] give it the same name (Νασίβ, Nazib), and place it at the ninth (Jerome, seventh) mile from [[Eleutheropolis]] towards [[Hebron]] (Onomast. s.v. Neesib). It is doubtless the present Beit- Nusib, situated on a rising ground, at the edge of the plain and mountain tract, two and a half hours from Beit-Jebrin towards Hebron (Robinson, Bib. Res. 2:343 sq., 404; 3:12; Schwarz, Palest. p. 104). It has ruins of considerable extent, especially a massive tower sixty feet square, with the foundations of another great fabric, and broken columns and large building-stones (Porter, Hand-book, p. 280). Tobler, however, describes it as "an insignificant cupola with a few ruins" (Dritte Wanderung, p. 150). </p>

Eusebius, <i> Onomasticon </i> , places it 7 miles from [[Eleutheropolis]] ( <i> '''''Beit''''' </i> <i> '''''Jibrı̄n''''' </i> ), on the road to Hebron.
