Based on the biblical narrative, primarily from the [[books of Kings]] and II Samuel, [[Berothai]], a city belonging to Hadadezer ({{Bibleref2|II Sam. 8:8}}) is identified by many with [[Berothah]] ({{Bibleref2|Ezekiel 47:16}}), which was between [[Hamath]] and [[Damascus]].{{fact|date=July 2019}} Zobah was probably located near this city, though [[Joseph Halévy]] claims to have identified Zobah with [[Chalcis, Syria|Chalcis]].{{fact|date=July 2019}} On either view, the area in question would be found in the far south of [[Syria]] and parts of [[Lebanon]].{{fact|date=July 2019}}
Some sources indicate that Zobah city is the modern town of [[Anjar, Lebanon|Anjar]] in [[Lebanon]]'s Bekaa Valley.<ref>[http://www.subaa.com/chapterDetails.php?chapterID=25 كتاب صوبا - تاريخ وطن وحياة قرية {{
