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.
