It is identified as a town in the territory of Benjamin. The name Hadid means "sharp" or "pointed," which may refer to its geographical features or its strategic importance. Historically, Hadid is mentioned in the list of towns whose inhabitants returned from the Babylonian exile (<a href="/ezra/2-33.htm">Ezra 2:33</a>; <a href="/nehemiah/7-37.htm">Nehemiah 7:37</a>). This indicates its significance in the post-exilic period as part of the restoration efforts led by Nehemiah. The town's inclusion in these lists highlights the importance of re-establishing Jewish presence in the land, fulfilling God's promises of restoration.<p><b>Zeboim</b><br>Zeboim is another location listed in the context of the resettlement efforts. The name Zeboim means "hyenas" or "gazelles," which could reflect the wildlife or characteristics of the area. It is one of the towns in the region of Benjamin, and its mention alongside other towns suggests its role in the broader community of returned exiles. Zeboim is also referenced in <a href="/1_samuel/13-18.htm">1 Samuel 13:18</a>, where it is part of the route taken by a Philistine raiding party, indicating its strategic location. The inclusion of Zeboim in Nehemiah's list underscores the comprehensive nature of the repopulation efforts, ensuring that even smaller or less prominent towns were not neglected in the restoration process.<p><b>Neballat</b><br>Neballat is a town mentioned in the list of settlements in the territory of Benjamin. The name Neballat means "hidden folly" or "hidden foolishness," which might suggest something about its history or reputation. Its mention in <a href="/nehemiah/11-34.htm">Nehemiah 11:34</a> is significant as it reflects the detailed record-keeping and organizational efforts of Nehemiah and the leaders of Israel in re-establishing the Jewish community in their ancestral lands. The inclusion of Neballat, along with other towns, highlights the importance of each community in the collective identity and heritage of the people of Israel. This meticulous documentation serves as a testament to the fulfillment of God's promises to restore His people to their land, as prophesied in various Old Testament scriptures.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/h/hadid.htm">Hadid</a></b><br>A town mentioned in the context of the repopulation of Jerusalem and its surrounding areas.
