Where is Shahazumah in the Bible?
Shahazumah was a town located on the border of the territory of Issachar in ancient Israel, mentioned in Joshua 19:22. The site lay in the northeastern region of Canaan, likely positioned southeast of Mount Tabor along a boundary that extended toward the Jordan River. Though Shahazumah's exact location has not been definitively identified by archaeologists, biblical scholars believe it should be sought in the area southeast of Mount Tabor. As a border town, Shahazumah served as a territorial marker during the division of Canaan among the twelve tribes of Israel following their conquest of the land.
