Shiloh: City of Ephraim, North of Beth-El: Devoted Men From, Killed by Ishmael

Source: Nav

Jeremiah 41:5–9 eighty men who had shaved off their beards, torn their garments, and cut themselves came from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria, carrying grain offerings and frankincense for the house of the LORD. / And Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping as he went. When Ishmael encountered the men, he said, “Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam.” / And when they came into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the men with him slaughtered them and threw them into a cistern.
