Beth-Marcaboth

A city in Judah’s territory given to the tribe of Simeon (Joshua 19:5; 1 Chronicles 4:31).

It may be the same as Madmannah (Joshua 15:31). The name Beth-marcaboth means “house of chariots,” and so some have seen a link to the chariot cities of Solomon (1 Kings 9:19; 10:26). We do not know its location unless it is the same as Madmannah.
