Hepher (2)
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
This place Trelawney Saunders (Map of the O.T.) identifies with Khurbet Kafir, which the Ordnance Map lays down eight miles northwest of Hebron (and three miles east of Um-Burj, the neighborhood which we had conjecturally assigned), and the Memoirs describe (3:355) as "foundations and heaps of stones. It has the appearance of an old site, and an ancient road passes it."
