Σοκχώθ v.r.Ἀκκαρωνά [imitating the ה directive]), a town near the western end of the northern boundary of Judah, between Ekron and Mt. [[Baalah]] towards Jabneel ( Joshua 15:11). It seems to have been in Dan, as it is not enumerated among the cities of Judah ( Joshua 15:21-63). The [[Targum]] gives it as ''Shikaron'' , and with this agrees [[Eusebius]] (''Onomast.'' s.v. Σαχωράν )'','' though no knowledge of the locality of the place is to be gained from his notice. Neither Schwarz (''Palest.'' p. 98) nor [[Porter]] (''Handb. for Pal.'' p. 275) has discovered any trace of it. It is, perhaps, the present ruined village ''Beit Shit,'' about halfway between Ekron and Ashdod. </p> | ||
