Soccho (Jos 15:35) in the tribe of Judah. Until this day there are two little villages on the way from Eleutheropolis to Jerusalem, at the ninth milestone of the public road, one on the mountain and the other in the valley, which are called Socchoth. (Eusebius, Onomasticon 156:18-20; Jerome 157:18-20) |
