A city in Judah where the Ark of the Covenant returned from Philistine captivity, placed on a cart that went straight to Beth-shemesh. The town appears in boundary lists and military encounters; kings met there in battle. It served as both a levitical city and a strategic location along Judah's borders.

Hear its story sung

"Behold; if it goes up by the way of its own border to Beth Shemesh, then he has done us this great evil; but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that struck us. It was a chance that happened to us.”"
1 Samuel 6
