Zeph´athah, a valley at Mareshah, in the tribe of Judah (), where Asa defeated Zerah the Cushite. Mareshah was near Eleutheropolis, and Robinson thinks the valley may have been the broad wady which comes down from Beit Jibrin (Eleutheropolis) towards Tell es-Saifeh; in which last name a trace of Zephathah may perhaps be recognized.
