Fausset's Bible Dictionary [1]

("lionesses" implying their presence formerly). A city in the extreme S. of Judah ( Joshua 15:32), afterward transferred to Simeon ( Joshua 19:6), whose portion, like Levi's, was "scattered" in Israel ( Genesis 49:5-7) on account of the cruelty in  Genesis 34:25-26. Now el Beyudh.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [2]

Leb'aoth. (Lionesses). A town, which forms one of the last group of the cities of "the south", in the enumeration of the possessions of Judah,  Joshua 15:32, probably, identical with Beth-lebaoth.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]

(Heb. Lebasth', לְבָאוֹת Lionesses; Sept. Λαβαώθ ), a city in the southern part of Judah, i.e. Simeon ( Joshua 15:32); elsewhere more fully Beth- Laebaoth ( Joshua 19:6); also Beth-Birei ( 1 Chronicles 4:31). The associated names in all these passages suggest a location in the wild south- western part of the tribe, possibly at the ruined site marked on Van de Velde's Map as Sbeta, on wady Suniyeh, not very far from Elusa, towards Gaza.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]

lḗ - bā´oth , - ōth ( לבאות , lebhā'ōth ): An unidentified city in the South of the territory of Judah (  Joshua 15:32 ). It is the same as Bethlebaoth of  Joshua 19:6 , which, by a clerical error appears in  1 Chronicles 4:31 as "Beth-biri."
