Where is Bahurim in the Bible?
Bahurim was a village located east of Jerusalem, near the Mount of Olives, in the region of ancient Judah. The most famous biblical event associated with Bahurim involves Shimei, a member of Saul's house, who cursed King David as he fled Jerusalem during Absalom's rebellion, throwing stones at him from a ridge overlooking the road. Bahurim is also mentioned as the place where Abner separated Paltiel from his wife Michal during the conflict between the houses of Saul and David. Scholars traditionally identify Bahurim with the modern site of Almit, located about a mile east of Anata as you travel from Jerusalem.
