Hormah, Arad. Cities in the Negeb, near the border of Edom. (see Num_14:45 Num_21:1, 3 33:40) Hor-mah was originally known as Zephath. (see Jud_1:16, 17, where the fullest description of the locality is given) It was in the wilderness of Judaea, in the arid country (Negeb) of Arad. Mr. Palmer identifies it with Sebaita, in the centre of the Negeb, in the Magrah-el-Esbaita, a mountain valley sloping down into the Wady-el-Abyadh. Other explorers prefer Sulifat, and Rowlands and G. Williams, Sepata.
