Zemaraim names two distinct places in the older sources, and the entity's two canonical references reflect both. The first is a town of Benjamin listed in Joshua 18:22, generally located at a ruin north of Jericho. The second is a hill in the Ephraim highlands where King Abijah of Judah routed Jeroboam's much larger army of Israel, a defeat from which the northern king never fully recovered (2 Chronicles 13:4-20).
