International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [3]
kē´ri - oth - hez´ron ( קריות חצרון , ḳerı̄yōth ḥecrōn ; Joshua 15:25 says, "The same is Hazor"; the King James Version "Kerioth and Hezron which is Hazor"): One of the cities in the "south" of Judah. Robinson ( Br , Ii , 101) identifies it with the ruined site of Kuryatain , 4 1/2 miles North of Tell ‛Arād . It has been suggested that Kerioth was the birth place of Judas Iscariot (which see). Compare Kerioth , 2.
