Then went Abimelech to Thebez…
He went from Shechem to Thebez (see Article 9.4). Thebez, which was one of the cities that depended upon Shechem and was joined to it by alliance, was not far from it, and had joined with them in the rebellion, according to Ben Gersom. Abimelech’s forces besieged the town, and took it. Adrichomius thinks the ruins of the city of Thebez (modern Tubas) are about six miles northeast of Neapolis or Shechem.
