The wilderness hill south of Jeshimon where David hid from Saul — and where David crept into Sauls camp at night and stole his spear without harming him
Judean DesertThe hill of Hachilah was a wilderness ridge in the Judean Desert south of Jeshimon, on the eastern fringe of the Wilderness of Ziph. David and his band of outlaws took refuge there during their years on the run from King Saul. Twice the Ziphites betrayed his location: "Is not David hiding among us in the strongholds of Horesh, on the hill of Hachilah, which is south of Jeshimon?" (1 Samuel 23:19, 26:1).
