    Description

    Rehoboth in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Rehoboth is mentioned as the hometown of Shaul, a king of Edom. He is described as "Shaul from Rehoboth on the river" (Gen. 36:37; 1Ch. 1:48). This distinguishes it from Isaac's well called Rehoboth. It was likely located along the Euphrates River, but its exact location is unknown.
