BAHARUM*, BAHARUMITE*, BAHURIM

Village in Benjamin’s territory on the old road connecting Jericho and Jerusalem, east of the Mt of Olives. Bahurim was located at the site of the present Ras et-Temim. Palti parted from his wife, Michal, there at Abner’s command when Michal was being returned to King David (2 Sm 3:16). At Bahurim, Shimei cursed David and threw stones at him and his servants (2 Sm 16:5; 19:16; 1 Kgs 2:8). Jonathan and Ahimaaz, spying for David, were hidden from Absalom’s soldiers in a well there (2 Sm 17:18). One of David’s mighty men, Azmaveth, came from Bahurim (2 Sm 23:31; 1 Chr 11:33).
