Easton's Bible Dictionary

Lehi:

a jawbone, a place in the tribe of Judah where Samson achieved a victory over the Philistines (Jdg 15:9,14,16), slaying a thousand of them with the jawbone of an ass. The words in Jdg 15:19, "a hollow place that was in the jaw" (A.V.), should be, as in Revised Version, "the hollow place that is in Lehi."

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Lehi:

(jaw bone) a place in Judah, probably on the confines of the Philistines' country, between it and the cliff Etam; the scene of Samson's well‐known exploit with the jaw bone (Judges 15:9; 15:14; 15:19). It may perhaps be identified with Beit‐Likiyeh, a village about two miles below the upper Beth‐horon.
