Where is Brook_of_the_Arabah in the Bible?
The Brook of the Arabah was a natural waterway in ancient Israel that served as the eastern boundary of King Jeroboam II's kingdom during the 8th century BC. Located in the Arabah region, which stretches along the Jordan Rift Valley east of the Jordan River, this brook marked the extent of Israelite territorial control during a period of significant political expansion. The brook is mentioned in the book of Amos, where the prophet uses it as a geographical reference point when describing the borders of the northern kingdom of Israel. This boundary represented the furthest reach of Jeroboam II's military and political power before the kingdom's eventual decline and fall to Assyrian conquest.
