Hareth

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Thicket, a wood in the mountains of Judah where David hid when pursued by Saul (1 Sam 22:5). It was possibly while he was here that the memorable incident narrated in 2 Sam 23:14-17, 1 Chr 11:16-19 occurred. This place has not been identified, but perhaps it may be the modern Kharas, on the borders of the chain of mountains some 3 miles east of Keilah.
