Hazarshual


Hay´zuhr-shoo´uhl; Heb., meaning uncertain, possibly “the haunt of the fox”

A settlement in southern Judah counted as belonging to the tribes of both Judah (Josh 15:28) and Simeon (Josh 19:3). It was probably originally occupied by Simeon and then later occupied by Judah as the tribe of Simeon lost its identity and was absorbed into Judah (1Chr 4:28-31; note Gen 49:5-7). It was later occupied by returning exiles (Neh 11:27). Its exact location is unknown.
