Usage: The term "Keziz" is used as a geographical name in the Old Testament, specifically referring to a valley. Context: • Keziz is mentioned in the context of the tribal allotments in the Book of Joshua. It is identified as a valley within the territory assigned to the tribe of Benjamin. The reference to Keziz is found in Joshua 18:21, where it is listed among the cities and regions that were part of Benjamin's inheritance. The name suggests a geographical feature characterized by a steep or abrupt landscape, possibly a ravine or gorge. The exact location of Keziz is not definitively known today, and it is not mentioned elsewhere in the biblical text. The name reflects the topographical nature of the area, which may have been significant for its strategic or agricultural value during the time of the Israelite settlement.
