Sorek (2)
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
The village by this name mentioned in the Onomasticon is probably represented by the present ruined site Khurbet Surek, lying one and a half miles north of Wady Sutrar, and the same distance west of Surah (Zorah). It contains "traces of a ruined village, springs, with a rock-cut wine-press, and cave to the west, and a sacred tree " (Memoirs to the Ordnance Survey, 3:126).
