Shaaraim
        

("two gateways".) A city assigned to Judah (Joshua 15:36; 1 Samuel 17:52). In the Shephelah. (See SHEPHELAH.) (1 Chronicles 4:31). (See SHILHIM.) The Septuagint read Sakarim, which favors identifying Shaaraim with Tell Zekariah above the southern bank of the valley of Elah, a large hill with terraced sides and caves.
