Seirah [1]

sḗ - ı̄´ra , sē´i - ra ( השׂעירה , ha - se‛ı̄rāh  ; Codex Vaticanus Σετειρωθά , Seteirōthá  ; Codex Alexandrinus Σεειρῶθα , Seeirṓtha  ; the King James Version, Seirath ): The place to which Ehud escaped after his assassination of Eglon, king of Moab ( Judges 3:26 ). The name is from the same root as the foregoing, and probably applied to some shaggy forest. The quarries by which he passed are said to have been by Gilgal ( Judges 3:19 ), but there is nothing to guide us to an identification. Eusebius, in Onomasticon , gives the name, but no indication of the site.
