A southern Negev town in the catalog of Judahs tribal inheritance
NegevJagur ("lodging place") was a southern Negev town in Judah's tribal inheritance named in Joshua 15:21 at the head of the long catalog of "the uttermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah toward the coast of Edom southward": "Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur, And Kinah, and Dimonah, and Adadah." The town appears only in this single boundary list. The exact site is uncertain but lay in the desert margin between settled Judah and the Edomite-Amalekite wilderness, in the cluster of small Negev frontier settlements that ran from Beersheba southward toward Kadesh-barnea.
