Place

Ibleam

Approximate location. The area is clear, but the exact site is not.

When Jehu rose against the house of Ahab, Ahaziah king of Judah fled. Jehu's men struck him in his chariot "at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam", and he died at Megiddo. The dot marks Khirbet Belameh, the usual site of the town.

Who passed through

  1. Jehu, 2 Kings 9:27
    But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.
