Beth-shean @ house of security or rest, a city which belonged to Manasseh ( kjv@1Chronicles:7:29), on the west of Jordan. The bodies of Saul and his sons were fastened to its walls. In Solomon's time it gave its name to a district (kjvKings:4:12). The name is found in an abridged form, Bethshan, in kjv@1Samuel:31:10-12 and kjv@2Samuel:21:12. It is on the road from Jerusalem to Damascus, about 5 miles from the Jordan, and 14 from the south end of the Lake of Gennesaret. After the Captivity it was called Scythopolis, i.e., "the city of the Scythians," who about B.C. 640 came down from the steppes of Southern Russia and settled in different places in Syria. It is now called Beisan.

Beth-shemesh @ house of the sun.

(1.) A sacerdotal city in the tribe of Dan kjv@Joshua:21:16; kjv@1Samuel:6:15), on the north border of Judah kjv@Joshua:15:10). It was the scene of an encounter between Jehoash, king of Israel, and Amaziah, king of Judah, in which the latter was made prisoner ( kjv@2Kings:14:11-13). It was afterwards taken by the Philistines ( kjv@2Chronicals:28:18). It is the modern ruined Arabic village 'Ain-shems, on the north-west slopes of the mountains of Judah, 14 miles west of Jerusalem.

(2.) A city between Dothan and the Jordan, near the southern border of Issachar kjv@Joshua:19:22), 7 1/2 miles south of Beth-shean. It is the modern Ain-esh
- Shemsiyeh.

(3.) One of the fenced cities of Naphtali kjv@Joshua:19:38), between Mount Tabor and the Jordan. Now Khurbet Shema, 3 miles west of Safed. But perhaps the same as No. 2.

(4.) An idol sanctuary in Egypt kjv@Jeremiah:43:13); called by the Greeks Heliopolis, and by the Egyptians On (q.v.), kjv@Genesis:41:45.
