Usage: This proper noun refers to a specific location in the Negev region, a desert area in the southern part of ancient Israel. It is mentioned in the context of territorial descriptions and allocations. Context: Ramoth-Negeb, also known as Ramath-Negeb, is a town located in the southern desert region of ancient Israel, known as the Negev. The name itself signifies its geographical characteristic as a high place within the arid landscape. The Negev was a significant area for the tribes of Israel, particularly for the tribe of Judah, which was allocated this region as part of their inheritance. The town is mentioned in the context of the territorial boundaries and settlements of the tribe of Judah. In the Berean Standard Bible, Ramoth-Negeb is referenced in Joshua 19:8, which details the towns and villages within the inheritance of the tribe of Simeon, which was within the territory of Judah: "and all the villages surrounding these cities as far as Baalath-beer (Ramah of the Negev). This was the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Simeon." The mention of Ramoth-Negeb highlights its role as a notable settlement within the Negev, contributing to the understanding of the geographical and tribal divisions in ancient Israel.
