Usage: Motsah is used in the context of a geographical location, specifically as a place name. It appears in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun.

Context: Motsah is mentioned in the context of a geographical location in the Hebrew Scriptures. It is identified as a place in the territory of the tribe of Benjamin. The name Motsah is derived from the Hebrew root יָצָא (yatsa), which conveys the idea of going out or coming forth, suggesting that the location may have been a point of departure or a place of significance in terms of movement or travel. The specific historical or geographical details about Motsah are limited, and it is primarily recognized through its mention in the biblical text. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides the following reference: "And the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward; and the border ended at the north bay of the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the southern border." (Joshua 18:19, BSB). This passage situates Motsah within the broader description of the boundaries of the tribe of Benjamin.
