Zeboim

gazelles or roes.

(1.) One of the "five cities of the plain" of Sodom, generally coupled with Admah (Gen 10:19; 14:2; Deut 29:23; Hos 11:8 ). It had a king of its own (Shemeber), and was therefore a place of some importance. It was destroyed along with the other cities of the plain.

(2.) A valley or rugged glen somewhere near Gibeah in Benjamin (1Sam 13:18 ). It was probably the ravine now bearing the name Wady Shakh-ed-Dub'a, or "ravine of the hyena," north of Jericho.

(3.) A place mentioned only in (Neh 11:34 ), inhabited by the Benjamites after the Captivity.
