BESOR (Brook).—A torrent-valley, apparently S. or S.W. of Ziklag (1Sa_30:9-10; 1Sa_30:21). It is probably the modern Wady Ghuzzeh, which empties itself into the sea S.W. of Gaza.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


The BROOK "fresh, cool"; a wady or torrent bed, S. of Ziklag, where David left 200 men so faint as not to be able to accompany him in pursuing the Amalekites into the desert whither they had withdrawn after burning Ziklag (1Sa_30:9-10; 1Sa_30:21),
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.


Be?sor, a brook mentioned in 1Sa_30:9. It is without doubt the same that Richardson crossed on approaching Gaza from the south, and which he calls Oa di Gaza (Wady Gaza). The bed was thirty yards wide, and its stream was, early in April, already exhausted, although some stagnant water remained.

Besor
(Heb. only with the art., hab-Besor', הִבְּשׂוֹר, the cool; Sept. Βοσόρ; Josephus, Βάσελος, Ant. 6, 14, ‘6), a torrent-bed (נִהִל, “brook”) or ravine in the extreme south-west of Judah or Simeon, where two hundred of David's men staid behind, being faint, while the other four hundred pursued the Amalekites, who had burnt the town of Ziklag, not far distant (1Sa_30:9-10; 1Sa_30:21). Sanutus derives its source from the interior Carmel, near Hebron, and states that it enters the sea near Gaza (Liber Secretorum, p. 252). For other slight ancient notices, see Reland, Paloest. p. 288. It is, without doubt, the same that Richardson crossed on approaching Gaza from the south, and which he calls “Oa di Gaza” (Wady Gaza). The bed was thirty yards wide, and its stream was, early in April, already exhausted, although some stagnant water remained. The upper part of this is called Wady Sheriah, and is doubtless the brook Besor, being the principal one in this vicinity (Van de Velde, Memoir, p. 293; Schwarz, Palest. p. 52, 78).
