HORESH

Hebrew word translated as a place-name in 1 Samuel 23:15-19 (part of the wilderness of Ziph). David hid from Saul there, and met secretly with Jonathan. The word is translated simply as “wooded areas” in 2 Chronicles 27:4 (NLT). Authorities differ on whether the place-name in 1 Samuel is warranted.
