Where is Beth-biri in the Bible?
Beth-biri was a town located in the Negeb region of ancient Israel that was allotted to the tribe of Simeon. The name Beth-biri, which means "house of my well" or possibly "abode of lions," appears in 1 Chronicles 4:31 as one of the settlements designated for Simeon's inheritance. This town was formerly known as Bethul and served as part of Simeon's territorial holdings in the southern desert region. The exact modern location of Beth-biri remains unidentified by archaeologists, though it was significant as one of the cities distributed to the tribe of Simeon following Israel's initial settlement of Canaan.
