Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

לָכִישׁ (i.q. لَكِسُ “obstinate,” i.e. hard to be captured), [Lachish], pr.n. of a fortified town (Isaiah 36:2; 2 Chronicles 11:9) in the plain country, of the tribe of Judah, which had formerly been a royal city of the Canaanites, Joshua 10:3, 12:11 15:39 Nehemiah 11:30; Jeremiah 34:7; Micah 1:13. [Derived in Thes. from the unused root. לָכַשׁ; and the meaning suggested, “smitten,” “taken,” “captured,” or else the one just mentioned.]
