In this passage, it refers to a town allotted to the tribe of Judah. The name means "God sows" or "May God give seed," which reflects the agricultural richness of the region. Jezreel is also significant in other parts of Scripture, such as the Valley of Jezreel, known for its fertile land and strategic military importance. This location is associated with several biblical events, including battles and prophetic visions. The mention of Jezreel here highlights the diverse inheritance of the tribe of Judah, which included both fertile lands and strategic locations.<p><b>Jokdeam</b><br>Jokdeam is a lesser-known town mentioned in the allotment of land to the tribe of Judah. Its exact location is not definitively identified today, but it is believed to have been situated in the hill country of Judah. The name Jokdeam may mean "burning of the people" or "gathering of the people," suggesting a place of assembly or significant activity. The inclusion of Jokdeam in the list of towns emphasizes the comprehensive nature of Judah's inheritance, which included both prominent and obscure locations, each contributing to the tribe's overall strength and diversity.<p><b>Zanoah</b><br>Zanoah is another town within the territory of Judah. It is mentioned in other parts of the Bible, such as <a href="/nehemiah/3-13.htm">Nehemiah 3:13</a>, where the people of Zanoah are noted for their role in repairing the walls of Jerusalem. This indicates that Zanoah was a community involved in the restoration and defense of the city, highlighting its importance within the region. The name Zanoah means "cast off" or "rejected," which may reflect a historical or cultural context that is not fully understood today. The town's inclusion in Judah's inheritance underscores the interconnectedness of the various communities within the tribe and their collective contribution to the nation's history and development.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jezreel.htm">Jezreel</a></b><br>A town allotted to the tribe of Judah.
