Allotted with its suburbs to the priests (Joshua 21:14; 1 Chronicles 6:57; compare 1 Chronicles 4:17). Frequented by David during his wanderings. Accordingly, to his friends there he sent presents of the [[Amalekite]] spoil (1 Samuel 30:28; 1 Samuel 30:31). Now Semu'a, seven miles S. of Hebron. [[Eshtemoa]] was son of Ishbah; [[Mered]] was husband of [[Jehudijah]] (the Jewess), by whose descendants, Gedor, Socho, and Zanoah, near Eshtemoa, were founded. The town Eshtemoa was founded by the descendants of Bithiah, Pharaoh's daughter, the [[Egyptian]] wife of Mered. (See BITHIAH.) A large stone (Hajr-el-Sakhain) stands on the N. road to the village Semu'a at a distance of 3,000 cubits, the [[Levitical]] extent of suburbs and the boundary of the village possessions to this day (Palestine Exploration).
