Ziph,.... Ziph was of the tribe of Judah in the south, on the borders of Eleutheropolis, as Jerom says (d) and was eight miles from Hebron to the east; and in his time a village was shown, where David was hid; but that Ziph seems to be in another part of this tribe near Carmel, and from whence a wilderness had its name; see
Jos 15:55
,
and Telem is supposed to be the same with Telaim,
Sa1 15:4
,
and Bealoth; of this city we read nowhere else.
(d) De loc. Heb. fol. 95. G.
