The ancient city of Beeroth, located in ancient [[Israel]], naturally became the location of a number of events that entered into the biblical texts. According to Joshua 9, Beeroth was one of the four cities that managed to deceive [[Joshua (Biblical leader)|Joshua]] into sparing them from destruction by pretending to be wandering peoples who are looking for aid. Furthermore, Beeroth became the location where [[Aaron]] died (Deuteronomy 10:6), and the region where the murderers of Ishbosheth came from (2 Samuel 4:2). According to the ancient 3rd century writer [[Eusebius]], Beeroth lay about 7 miles away from [[Jerusalem]], which is similar to el-Bireh, the traditional site of Beeroth which is 8 miles away from Jerusalem.
