A spring on the border of Judah and Benjamin. It was whereJonathan and Ahimaaz stayed in secret, to carry to David any message from Hushai, on the revolt of Absalom; and close to this spring Adonijah called the king's sons together when he exalted himself to succeed David as king. Joshua 15:7; Joshua 18:16; 2 Sam. 17:17; 1 Kings 1:9 . It was no doubt a spring not far from Jerusalem. Bir Eyub, about half amile south of Jerusalem was long supposed to be the spot, but this is a well, not a spring. The Fountain of the Virgin, near the south east corner of the city, is now more generally chosen; but this appears to be too near the city to coincide with the above events.
