Lehi:
a jawbone, a place in the tribe of Judah where Samson achieved a victory over the Philistines (Jdg 15:9,14,16), slaying a thousand of them with the jawbone of an ass. The words in Jdg 15:19, "a hollow place that was in the jaw" (A.V.), should be, as in Revised Version, "the hollow place that is in Lehi."

Lehi:
(jaw bone) a place in Judah, probably on the confines of the Philistines' country, between it and the cliff Etam; the scene of Samson's well‐known exploit with the jaw bone (Judges 15:9; 15:14; 15:19). It may perhaps be identified with Beit‐Likiyeh, a village about two miles below the upper Beth‐horon.
Ramath-Lehi:
ra'-math-le'-hi (ramath lechi, "the hill" or "height of Lehi"; Anairesis siagonos): So the place is said to have been called where Samson threw away the jaw-bone of an ass, with which he had slain 1,000 Philistines (Jud 15:17). The Septuagint seems to have supposed that the name referred to the "heaving" or throwing up of the jaw-bone. The Hebrew, however, corresponds to the form used in other placenames, such as Ramath-mizpeh, and must be read as "Ramah of Lehi." The name Lehi may have been given because of some real or imagined likeness in the place to the shape of a jaw-bone (Jud 15:9,14,19). It may have been in Wady es-Sarar, not far from Zorah and Timnath; but the available data do not permit of certain identification.
