Sechu:
a hill or watch-tower, a place between Gibeah and Ramah noted for its "great well" (1Sa 19:22); probably the modern Suweikeh, south of Beeroth.
Sechu:
defense; bough
Sechu:
se'-ku (sekhu).
Sechu:
(the watch‐tower) a place mentioned once only-(1 Samuel 19:22).-apparently as lying on the route between Saul's residence, Gibeah, and Ramah (Ramathaim‐zophim) that of Samuel. It was notorious for "the great well" (or rather cistern) which it contained. Assuming that Saul started from Gibeah (Tuleil el‐Ful) and that Neby Samwil is Ramah, then Bir Nebolla (the well of Neballa) just south of Beeroth, alleged by modern traveler to contain a large pit would be in a suitable position for the great well of Sechu.
Secu:
se'-ku (sekhu; Codex Vaticanus en Sephei; Codex Alexandrinus en Sokcho; the King James Version Sechu): This name occurs only in the account of David's visit to Samuel (1Sa 19:22). Saul, we are told, went to "Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Secu," where he inquired after Samuel and David. It evidently lay between the residence of Saul at Gibeah and Ramah. It is impossible to come to any sure conclusion regarding it. Conder suggested its identification with Khirbet Suweikeh, which lies to the South of Bireh. This is possible, but perhaps we should read with the Septuagint's Codex Vaticanus, "He came to the cistern of the threshing-floor that is on the bare hill" (en to Sephei). The threshing-floors in the East are naturally on high exposed ground where this is possible, and often form part of the area whence water in the rainy season is conducted to cisterns. This might have been a place actually within the city of Ramah.
