shearing house: Heb. house of shepherds binding sheep, 2 Kings 10:12

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ver. 12 And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria,.... To make a clear riddance there of all that belonged to Ahab, as at Jezreel, and abolish idolatry there:

and as he was at the shearing house in the way; or, "the house of the binding of the shepherds", who, in shearing their sheep, bind their legs together; the Targum is,

"the house of the gathering of the shepherds;''

where they used to meet and converse together; with some it is the proper name of a place, Betheked, a country village between Jezreel and Samaria. Jerom speaks q of a village of this name, situated in a large plain, about fifteen miles from a place called Legion, which village he takes to be this here.

q De loc. Heb. fol. 89. K.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The shearing-house - literally, as in margin. Perhaps already a proper name, Beth-eked, identical with the Beth-akad of Jerome, which is described as between Jezreel and Samaria; but not yet identified.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 10:12. The shearing house — Probably the place where the shepherds met for the annual sheep shearing.
