Succoth

Definition:

Succoth is the name of two Old Testament cities. The word, "succoth" (or "sukkoth") means "shelters."

The first city called Succoth was located on the east side of the Jordan River.
Jacob stayed at Succoth with his family and flocks, building shelters for them there.
Hundreds of years later, Gideon and his exhausted men stopped at Succoth as they were chasing the Midanites, but the people there refused to give them any food.
The second Succoth is located on the northern border of Egypt and was one place where the Israelites stopped after they crossed the Red Sea as they were escaping from slavery in Egypt.
