LEBAOTH

Town in the Negev of Judah (Jos 15:32) occupied by the tribe of Simeon under the name Beth-lebaoth (19:6). The parallel list of Simeonite towns has Beth-biri in this place (1 Chr 4:31). The element beth, “house of,” is undoubtedly original, denoting a place of worship of the goddess of the lions (lebaoth); Beth-biri might be another place or just a textual variant typical of the list in 1 Chronicles.
