SILLA . The servants of king Joash smote him ‘at the house of Millo [read rather ‘at Beth-Millo’] on the way that goeth down to Silla’ ( 2 Kings 12:20 ). Where or what Silla may have been there is nothing to show. The LXX [Note: Septuagint.] reads Gaalla or Gaallad .

Smith's Bible Dictionary [2]
Sil'la. (A Highway). "The house of Millo which goeth down to Silla" was the scene of the murder of King Joash. 2 Kings 12:20. What or where Silla was is entirely matter of conjecture. Some have suggested the pool of Siloam.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
2 Kings 12:20. "The house of Mille which goeth down to Silla." Evidently in the valley below Millo, but "the Mille" is the phrase elsewhere.(See Millo .)
Morrish Bible Dictionary [4]
Place alluded to when Joash was murdered. It was apparently somewhere near Jerusalem. 2 Kings 12:20 .
Holman Bible Dictionary [5]

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [7]
the actual and supreme god in the mythology of the Greenlanders, who is also named Pirksoma. The name signifies the one above. He raises the dead to eternal life, and is graciously or angrily disposed towards men in accordance with their character for virtue. The training of children is not at all understood by that people; but the invariable earnestness, quietness, and good behavior of the older persons produce their effects upon the young in begetting in them similar traits. A mother may, nevertheless, be heard now and then to rebuke her child with the words "Silla tekoa," i.e. the one above Isees it. Cilla is to them the Supreme and Incomprehensible Being.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [8]
sil´a ( סלּא , ṣillā' ; Codex Vaticanus Γαλλά , Gallá ; Codex Alexandrinus Γααλλάς , Gaallád ): Joash was assassinated by his servants "at the house of Millo, on the way that goeth down to Silla" ( 2 Kings 12:20 ). Wherever Beth-millo stood, Silla was evidently in the valley below it; but nothing is known of what it was or where it stood.
