Location of the Cave of Adullam[edit]

User:Huldra has raised the issue of old, perhaps antiquated, sources where the "Cave of Adullam" was located by travelers in or near Tuqu'. More recent travelers have opted to suggest that the cave is to be identified with caves that are found in the ruin "Eid el-Miah," said to be the biblical Adullam. What then should be our input in this article? Should we mention both sites as potential sites for this historic cave, even though the site of Tuqu' is now recognized by all historical geographers as being the biblical Tekoa, rather than Adullam?Davidbena (talk) 00:06, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User:Davidbena I suggest we divide this article in three,

1st, the Biblical story,
2nd the identification with the cave near Tuqu' (see Talk:Adullam#Should_this_article_be_split_in_two?),
3rd, present identification near Adullam. Presently, lots of the pictures under Abdullum are actually from the Tuqu' vicinity, Huldra (talk) 23:44, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There should, indeed, be at least two sections added to this article: one, entitled "Biblical story"; the other, entitled "Identification." In the section entitled "Identification," there we can address both issues, namely, its scholarly and academic identification, and its former identification based on early drawings and sketches.Davidbena (talk) 03:11, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A cave[edit]

A cave in other word conote a place for a set apart for every believer that want to experience God practically in all dimensions. Like Elijah was in the cave when God instructed him to go to sarephat that he had prepare a widow for him to feed him. So therefore a cave is related to christians journey of intimate with God. 2C0F:F5C0:457:A0BD:DC73:1019:6AE1:B85A (talk) 08:20, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
