A city in the south of Judah, 12 miles south-east of Beersheba, to which David sent presents after recovering the spoil from the Amalekites at Ziklag ([1 Sam. 30:26](/1sam#1Sam.30.26), [28](/1sam#1Sam.30.28)). It was the native city of two of David’s warriors ([1 Chr. 11:44](/1chr#1Chr.11.44)). It is now called Ar’arah.
