International Standard Bible Encyclopedia on Taralah

Taralah tar'-a-la (tar'alah; Codex Vaticanus Thareela; Codex Alexandrinus Tharala): A town in the territory of Benjamin named between Irpeel and Zelah (Jos 18:27). Eusebius, Onomasticon (s.v. "Therama") simply says it was in the tribe of Benjamin. In the times of Eusebius and Jerome, therefore, the site was already lost, and has not since been covered. ⇒See a list of verses on TARALAH in the Bible. ⇒See also the McClintock and Strong Biblical Cyclopedia.
