Beer-sheba means "Well of the Oath" (or Well of Seven), once being the location of a well(Genesis 26:23-25), and later a city that came to stand for the southernmost point in the Promised Land(Judges 20:1)(1Chronicles 21:2; 2Chronicles 30:5)(2Kings 23:8)(2Chronicles 19:4)(Nehemiah 11:27, 30) though there were other smaller towns below it.
