Eloth is the alternate form of Elath, the Red Sea port at the gulf's northern reach. It is important because the variant preserves the same strategic southern harbor under a different textual form. First appears in 1 Kgs 9:26.1
AI summary: Eloth on this page should be read alongside Elath, since both refer to the same port world at the head of the Gulf of Aqaba. The cross references present Eloth as the textual twin of that southern harbor, preserving the maritime and frontier significance of the site.1
