Lebaoth

Places · Updated 2026-05-07

Lebaoth is a town named once in the southern town-list of Judah's allotment, in territory subsequently held by Simeon. The fuller form Beth-lebaoth appears in the Simeonite list.

In the southern town-list

Joshua 15:32 closes the southern Judah catalogue: "and Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and En-rimmon: all the cities are twenty and nine, with their villages."

Lebaoth stands among the last-named cities in this stretch of the inheritance, grouped with Shilhim and En-rimmon and counted within the running total of twenty-nine cities and their dependent villages.
