Cultural and Historical Background: Beth Choglah is mentioned as a landmark in the territorial boundaries of the tribe of Benjamin. It is located near the Jordan River and the Dead Sea, in the region that was allocated to the tribe of Benjamin after the Israelites entered the Promised Land. The area was significant for its strategic location and its proximity to other important biblical sites.
