KIRJATH - K>@ - (a city), the last of the cities enumerated as belonging to the tribe of Benjamin, kjv@Joshua:18:28) probably identical with the better-known place Kirjath-jearim.

KIRJATHARBA - K>@ - (the city of Arba), an early name of the city which after the conquest is generally known as HEBRON. kjv@Joshua:14:15; kjv@Judges:1:10) The identity of Kirjath-arba with Hebron is constantly asserted. kjv@Genesis:23:2 kjv@Genesis:35:27; kjv@Joshua:14:15 kjv@Joshua:15:13-54 kjv@Joshua:20:7 ; 21:11)

KIRJATHARIM - K>@ - (city of forests), an abbreviated form of the name Kirjath-jearim, which occurs only in kjv@Ezra:2:25)

KIRJATHBAAL - K>@ - [KIRJATH

- JEARIM]

KIRJATHHUZOTH - K>@ - (city of streets), a place to which Balak accompanied Balaam immediately after his arrival in Moab, kjv@Numbers:22:39) and which is nowhere else mentioned. It appears to have lain between the Arnon (Wady Mojeb) and Bamoth-baal. Comp. vs. kjv@Numbers:22:36) and Numb 22:41

KIRJATHJEARIM - K>@ - (the city of forests), first mentioned as one of the four cities of the Gibeonites, kjv@Joshua:9:17) it next occurs as one of the landmarks of the northern boundary of Judah, ch kjv@Joshua:15:9) and as the point at which the western and southern boundaries of Benjamin coincided, ch. kjv@Joshua:18:14-15) and in the last two passages we find that it bore another, perhaps earlier, name
that of the great Canaanite deity Baal, namely BAALAH and KIRJATH

- BAAL. At this place the ark remained for twenty years. ( kjv@1Samuel:7:2) At the close of that time Kirjath-jearim lost its sacred treasure, on its removal by David to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. ( kjv@1Chronicles:13:5-6; kjv@2Chronicles:1:4; 2 Samuel kjv@6:2) etc. To Eusebius and Jerome it appears to have been well known. They describe it as a village at the ninth mile between Jerusalem and Diospolis (Lydda). These requirements are exactly fulfilled in the small modern village of Kuriet-el
- Enab
now usually known as Abu Gosh , from the robber chief whose headquarters it was
on the road from Jaffa and Jerusalem.

easton:

Kirjath @ city, a city belonging to Benjamin kjv@Joshua:18:28), the modern Kuriet el-'Enab, i.e., "city of grapes", about 7 1/2 miles west-north-west of Jerusalem.

Kirjath-arba @ city of Arba, the original name of Hebron (q.v.), so called from the name of its founder, one of the Anakim kjv@Genesis:23:2 kjv@Genesis:35:27; kjv@Joshua:15:13). It was given to Caleb by Joshua as his portion. The Jews interpret the name as meaning "the city of the four", i.e., of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Adam, who were all, as they allege, buried there.

Kirjath-huzoth @ city of streets, kjv@Numbers:22:39, a Moabite city, which some identify with Kirjathaim. Balak here received and entertained Balaam, whom he had invited from Pethor, among the "mountains of the east," beyond the Euphrates, to lay his ban upon the Israelites, whose progress he had no hope otherwise of arresting. It was probably from the summit of Attarus, the high place near the city, that the soothsayer first saw the encampments of Israel.

Kirjath-jearim @ city of jaars; i.e., of woods or forests, a Gibeonite town kjv@Joshua:9:17) on the border of Benjamin, to which tribe it was assigned (18:15,28). The ark was brought to this place ( kjv@1Samuel:7:1-2) from Beth-shemesh and put in charge of Abinadab, a Levite. Here it remained till it was removed by David to Jerusalem ( kjv@2Samuel:6:2-3, 12; kjv@1Chronicles:15:1-29; comp. Psalms:132). It was also called Baalah kjv@Joshua:15:9) and Kirjath-baal

(60). It has been usually identified with Kuriet el-'Enab (i.e., "city of grapes"), among the hills, about 8 miles north-east of 'Ain Shems (i.e., Beth-shemesh). The opinion, however, that it is to be identified with 'Erma, 4 miles east of 'Ain Shems, on the edge of the valley of Sorek, seems to be better supported. (
See KIRJATH.) The words of kjv@Psalms:132:6, "We found it in the fields of the wood," refer to the sojourn of the ark at Kirjath-jearim. "Wood" is here the rendering of the Hebrew word jaar, which is the singular of jearim.

Kirjath-sannah @ city of the sannah; i.e., of the palm(?), kjv@Joshua:15:49; the same as Kirjath-sepher (15:16; kjv@Judges:1:11) and Debir (q.v.), a Canaanitish royal city included in Judah kjv@Joshua:10:38 kjv@Joshua:15:49), and probably the chief seat of learning among the Hittites. It was about 12 miles to the south-west of Hebron.

Kirjath-sepher @ city of books, kjv@Joshua:15:15; same as Kirjath-sannah (q.v.), now represented by the valley of ed
- Dhaberiyeh, south-west of Hebron. The name of this town is an evidence that the Canaanites were acquainted with writing and books. "The town probably contained a noted school, or was the site of an oracle and the residence of some learned priest." The "books" were probably engraved stones or bricks.

Kirjathaim @ two cities; a double city.

(1.) A city of refuge in Naphtali ( kjv@1Chronicles:6:76).

(2.) A town on the east of Jordan kjv@Genesis:14:5; kjv@Deuteronomy:2:9-10). It was assigned to the tribe of Reuben kjv@Numbers:32:37). In the time of Ezekiel (25:9) it was one of the four cities which formed the "glory of Moab" (comp. kjv@Jeremiah:48:1-23). It has been identified with el
- Kureiyat, 11 miles south-west of Medeba, on the south slope of Jebel Attarus, the ancient Ataroth.
