Where is Adoraim in the Bible?

Adoraim was a fortified city in the kingdom of Judah, located in the hill country of southern Israel about five miles west-southwest of Hebron. King Rehoboam, who ruled Judah in the 10th century BC, built it up as one of several strategic defensive cities to strengthen his kingdom. The city is mentioned in the biblical record alongside other fortifications that Rehoboam established throughout Judah, reflecting his efforts to secure the borders of his divided kingdom. Scholars identify Adoraim with the modern site of Dura, located in the West Bank region, which has helped confirm its location and significance in the geography of ancient Judah.
