Usage: Moladah is used in the Hebrew Bible as the name of a town in the southern part of ancient Judah, later allotted to the tribe of Simeon. Context: Moladah is mentioned in the context of the territorial allotments of the tribes of Israel. It appears in the list of cities given to the tribe of Simeon within the territory of Judah. The town is first mentioned in Joshua 15:26 as part of the inheritance of the tribe of Judah. Later, in Joshua 19:2, it is listed among the cities given to the tribe of Simeon. Moladah is also referenced in 1 Chronicles 4:28, where it is again associated with the tribe of Simeon. In the post-exilic period, Nehemiah 11:26 mentions Moladah as one of the places where the people of Judah lived after returning from Babylonian exile. The location of Moladah is generally identified with the archaeological site of Tell el-Milh, situated in the Negev region of modern-day Israel. The town's name, meaning "birth" or "generation," may reflect its historical or cultural significance in the context of the tribal inheritances and settlements of ancient Israel.
