Libnah
Libnah was a town in the Shephelah of Judah, often identified with Tel Burna near Kiryat Gat, although its location is uncertain. According to 2 Kings it revolted against King Jehoram in the 9th century BCE, and in 701 BCE Sennacherib attacked it after taking Lachish. Hamutal, the mother of the kings Jehoahaz and Zedekiah, came from Libnah.
