BETHULIA . The locality of the scenes of the Book of Judith ( Jdt 4:6-7 etc.). If not a synonym for Jerusalem itself, it is an unknown site south of the plain of Jezreel. Mithilyah from the similarity of the name, Sanur from its commanding position, and even Shechem , have all been suggested as possible sites.

E. W. G. Masterman.
