Thus, Hazar-susah can be translated as "village of the horse" or "enclosure of the horse." This name suggests a location associated with horses, possibly indicating a place where horses were bred or kept.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b> <br>Hazar-susah is mentioned in the Old Testament, specifically in the Book of Joshua. It is listed as one of the towns in the territory allotted to the tribe of Simeon. The Berean Standard Bible provides the following reference:<br><br>· <a href="/joshua/19-5.htm">Joshua 19:5</a> : "Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah,"<br><br>This verse is part of the description of the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon, which was situated within the larger territory of Judah. The inclusion of Hazar-susah in this list indicates its significance as a settlement during the period of the Israelite conquest and settlement of Canaan.<br><br><b>Historical and Geographical Context:</b> <br>Hazar-susah was located in the southern part of ancient Israel, within the Negev region. The Negev is a desert area that was part of the tribal inheritance of Simeon, which was absorbed into the territory of Judah due to Simeon's relatively small population and the expansive land of Judah. The exact location of Hazar-susah is not definitively known today, but it is believed to have been situated near other towns mentioned in the same biblical passage, such as Ziklag and Beth-marcaboth.<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Significance:</b> <br>The mention of Hazar-susah in the context of Simeon's inheritance highlights the fulfillment of God's promise to the descendants of Jacob regarding the division of the Promised Land. Each tribe received its portion, and the detailed listing of towns and villages underscores the historical reality of Israel's settlement in Canaan.<br><br>The name "village of the horse" may also reflect the economic activities of the region, suggesting that horse breeding or trade was a notable aspect of the local economy. Horses were valuable assets in ancient times, used for transportation, agriculture, and warfare, which could imply that Hazar-susah held some strategic or economic importance.<br><br><b>Archaeological Insights:</b> <br>While there is limited archaeological evidence directly linked to Hazar-susah, the broader region of the Negev has been the subject of numerous excavations. These have revealed insights into the lifestyle, trade, and agricultural practices of the ancient inhabitants. The presence of other nearby settlements mentioned in the biblical text provides a framework for understanding the historical context of Hazar-susah.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>Hazar-susah, though briefly mentioned in the Bible, contributes to the rich tapestry of Israel's tribal history and settlement patterns. Its inclusion in the tribal allotment of Simeon serves as a testament to the detailed record-keeping and fulfillment of divine promises in the biblical narrative.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Hazar-Susah</span><p>or susim, the hay-paunch of a horse<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Village of the horse, the same as Sansannah, one of Solomon's "chariot cities" (<a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/1-14.htm">2 Chronicles 1:14</a>), a depot in the south border of Judah. <a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/2701.htm"><span class="l">2701.
