It is mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments in the Old Testament and plays a crucial role during David's time as a fugitive from King Saul.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b> <br>Ziklag is first mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments in the Book of Joshua. It is listed as part of the inheritance of the tribe of Judah and later associated with the tribe of Simeon. <a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a> states, "Ziklag, Madmannah, Sansannah," and in <a href="/joshua/19-5.htm">Joshua 19:5</a>, it is again mentioned as part of the territory of Simeon: "Ziklag, Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susah."<br><br>The most notable references to Ziklag occur in the narrative of David. In <a href="/1_samuel/27-5.htm">1 Samuel 27:5-6</a>, David, fleeing from King Saul, seeks refuge with Achish, the king of Gath. David requests a place to live, and Achish grants him Ziklag: "So on that day Achish gave him Ziklag, and to this day it still belongs to the kings of Judah" (<a href="/1_samuel/27-6.htm">1 Samuel 27:6</a>). This period marks a significant phase in David's life, as he uses Ziklag as a base for his operations while living among the Philistines.<br><br>Ziklag is also the site of a devastating event recorded in <a href="/bsb/1_samuel/30.htm">1 Samuel 30</a>. While David and his men are away, the Amalekites raid Ziklag, burning it and taking captive the women and children. Upon returning, David finds the city destroyed and his people taken. In his distress, David seeks the Lord's guidance and is instructed to pursue the Amalekites. The narrative continues in <a href="/1_samuel/30-18.htm">1 Samuel 30:18-19</a>, where David successfully recovers all that was taken: "David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives. Nothing was missing, young or old, son or daughter, plunder or anything else they had taken. David brought everything back."<br><br><b>Historical and Geographical Context:</b> <br>The exact location of Ziklag has been a subject of debate among scholars and archaeologists. It is generally believed to have been located in the Negev region, south of Judah, near the Philistine territory. The identification of Ziklag with a specific archaeological site remains uncertain, though several candidates have been proposed.<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b> <br>Ziklag holds theological significance as a place of refuge and testing for David. It represents a period of transition and preparation for his future role as king of Israel. The events at Ziklag highlight themes of divine providence, leadership, and the importance of seeking God's guidance in times of distress. David's recovery of the captives and plunder from the Amalekites underscores God's faithfulness and the fulfillment of His promises to David.<br><br><b>Legacy:</b> <br>Ziklag's legacy is intertwined with David's rise to kingship. It serves as a testament to God's protection and provision during a critical period in David's life. The narrative of Ziklag is a reminder of the trials and triumphs that often accompany the path to fulfilling God's purposes.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Ziklag</span><p>measure pressed down<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Ziklag</span><p>(<i>winding</i>), a place which possesses a special interest from its having been the residence and the private property of David. It is first mentioned in the catalogue of the towns of Judah in (<a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a>) and occurs, in the same connection among the places which were allotted out of the territory of Judah to Simeon. (<a href="/joshua/19-5.htm">Joshua 19:5</a>) We next encounter it in the possession of the Philistines (<a href="/1_samuel/27-6.htm">1 Samuel 27:6</a>) when it was, at David's request, bestowed upon him by Achish king of Gath. He resided there for a year and four months. (<a href="/1_samuel/27-6.htm">1 Samuel 27:6,7</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/30-14.htm">30:14,26</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/12-1.htm">1 Chronicles 12:1,20</a>) It was there he received the news of Saul's death. (<a href="/2_samuel/1-1.htm">2 Samuel 1:1</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/4-10.htm">4:10</a>) He then relinquished it for Hebron. (<a href="/2_samuel/2-1.htm">2 Samuel 2:1</a>) Ziklag is finally mentioned as being reinhabited by the people of Judah after their return from captivity. (<a href="/nehemiah/11-28.htm">Nehemiah 11:28</a>) The situation of the town is difficult to determine, and we only know for certain that it was in the south country.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Ziklag</span><p>A city of Judah and Simeon, on the borders of the Philistines, <a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a>; 19:5, who held it until the time of Saul, when Achish king of Gath gave it to David. Hither many other refugees from Judah resorted, and David was thus enabled to aid Achish, and to chastise the Amalekites who had sacked Ziklag during his absence, <a href="/context/1_samuel/27-1.htm">1 Samuel 27:1</a> 6; 30:1-31; <a href="/nehemiah/11-28.htm">Nehemiah 11:28</a>. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>A town in the Negeb, or south country of Judah (<a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a>), in the possession of the Philistines when David fled to Gath from Ziph with all his followers.

From this time it pertained to the kings of Judah (<a href="/1_samuel/27-6.htm">1 Samuel 27:6</a>). During his absence with his army to join the Philistine expedition against the Israelites (<a href="/1_samuel/29-11.htm">29:11</a>), it was destroyed by the Amalekites (<a href="/1_samuel/30-1.htm">30:1</a>, 2), whom David, however, pursued and utterly routed, returning all the captives (<a href="/1_samuel/30-26.htm">1 Samuel 30:26</a>-31). Two days after his return from this expedition, David received tidings of the disastrous battle of Gilboa and of the death of Saul (<a href="/2_samuel/1-1.htm">2 Samuel 1:1</a>-16). He now left Ziklag and returned to Hebron, along with his two wives, Ahinoam and Abigail, and his band of 600 men. It has been identified with `Asluj, a heap of ruins south of Beersheba. Conder, however, identifies it with Khirbet Zuheilikah, ruins found on three hills half a mile apart, some seventeen miles north-west of Beersheba, on the confines of Philistia, Judah, and Amalek. <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">ZIKLAG</span><p>zik'-lag (tsiqelagh, tsiqelagh (<a href="/2_samuel/1-1.htm">2 Samuel 1:1</a>), tsiqelagh (<a href="/1_chronicles/12-1.htm">1 Chronicles 12:1, 20</a>); usually in the Septuagint Sekelak, or Sikelag): A town assigned (<a href="/joshua/19-5.htm">Joshua 19:5</a> <a href="/1_chronicles/4-30.htm">1 Chronicles 4:30</a>) to Simeon, but in <a href="/joshua/15-31.htm">Joshua 15:31</a> named, between Hornah and Madmannah, as one of the cities of the Negeb of Judah, "toward the border of Edom."

In <a href="/nehemiah/11-28.htm">Nehemiah 11:28</a> it is in the list of towns reinhabited by the returning children of Judah. Its chief associations are with David.
