THEBEZ . A fortified city, in the reduction of which Abimelech met his death ( Judges 9:50 , 2 Samuel 11:21 ). It is described by Eusebius and Jerome as 13 miles from Neapolis, on the road to Scythopolis. This is almost certainly the present Tûbâs , a prosperous village in a fruitful open valley, 10 miles N.E. of Nâblus , on the ancient highroad to Beisân .

E. W. G. Masterman.
