Where is Mozah in the Bible?
Mozah was a town in ancient Palestine allotted to the tribe of Benjamin, located approximately four miles northwest of Jerusalem in the region north of Quloniyeh. The name Mozah means "place of hard stone," derived from Hebrew and reflected in the modern Arabic village name Beit Mizzeh. This town is mentioned in the Book of Joshua as part of the territorial divisions given to Benjamin after the Israelite conquest of Canaan. While Mozah itself is not the site of major biblical events, its inclusion in the boundary descriptions of Benjamin's inheritance demonstrates the careful delineation of tribal lands in ancient Israel.
