Nob:
(high place). (1 Samuel 22:19; Nehemiah 11:32) a sacerdotal city in the tribe of Benjamin and situated on some eminence near Jerusalem. It was one of the places where the ark of Jehovah was kept for a time during the days of its wanderings (2 Samuel 6:1 etc.). But the event for which Nob was most noted in the Scripture annals was a frightful massacre which occurred there in the reign of Saul (1 Samuel 22:17-19).

Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
