Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah and attacked it (Josh. 10: 29) In the western foothills: …Libnah, Ether, Ashan… (Josh. 15: 33-42) So to the descendants of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron (a city of refuge for one accused of murder), Libnah (Josh. 21: 13) The Tel Burna Archaeological Project http://telburna.wordpress.com

To this day Edom has been in rebellion against Judah. Libnah revolted at the same time (2 Kgs. 8: 22) Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother's name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah (2 Kgs. 23: 31) Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years.
