Cultural and Historical Background: Nibshan is one of the cities listed in the territory allotted to the tribe of Judah. The wilderness of Judah is a desert region that extends from the hill country of Judah to the Dead Sea.

The cities in this region were often small and served as outposts or settlements for those traveling through the desert.
