The Definition of the word Thebez

Thebez

Brightness, a place some 11 miles north-east of Shechem, on the "road to Scythopolis, the modern Tabas. Abimelech led his army" "against this place, because of its participation in the" conspiracy of the men of Shechem; but as he drew near to the "strong tower to which its inhabitants had fled for safety, and" "was about to set fire to it, a woman cast a fragment of" "millstone at him, and "all to brake his skull" i.e., "altogether" "brake," etc. His armourbearer thereupon "thrust him through, and" "he died" (Judg. 9:50-55)."
