This Jezreel entry refers to the town in Judah south-east of Hebron, not the better-known northern Jezreel in the great valley. It is important as a smaller Judahite settlement and as the home association of Ahinoam in David's story. First appears in Josh 15:56.1
AI summary: Jezreel often evokes the northern valley and royal narratives around Ahab, but this entry points instead to a southern Judahite town. Its references are fewer and more local, tying it to settlement geography and to Ahinoam's background in David's life. That makes it distinct from the politically charged northern Jezreel. The cross references present this Jezreel as a southern town whose significance is relational and geographic rather than dynastic.1
A town in Judah (Josh. 15:56), to the south-east of Hebron. Ahinoam, one of David’s wives, probably belonged to this place (1 Sam. 27:3). 3
