HELKATH-HAZZURIM*

Area near the pool of Gibeon, where 12 champions from Joab’s army and 12 from Abner’s battled. All 24 died in the fight, each fighter killing his opponent (2 Sm 2:16). Some scholars think the name may mean “field of the crafty,” that is, “field of ambush” or “field of the adversaries.” The NLT renders it “the Field of Swords” (mg).
