ATROTH-BETH-JOAB

(Heb. ʿaṭrôṯ bêṯ yôʾāḇ)

One of several towns in Judah mentioned in the genealogy of Salma, son of Hur, a descendent of Judah (1 Chr. 2:54). If these towns are listed in geographical order, then Atroth-beth-joab is to be located between Netophah (possibly Khirbet Bedd Fālûḥ [171119], SE of Bethlehem) and Manahath (probably el-Mâlḥah/Manaḥat [167128], NW of Bethlehem). This would place Atroth-beth-joab near the edge of the Judean wilderness, although its modern location has not yet been identified.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
