Bahurim


King David is cursed and threatened with stones and dust flings by Shimei

As King David was fleeing Absalom's conspiracy, he passed through Bahurim where he encountered Shimei, the son of Gera, who cursed continually, threw stones, and flung dust until he left in peace. (2 Samuel 16:5-14)

Jonathan and Ahimaaz hide in a well

Hushai sent word to King David from Absalom's court via the priests, telling him how to flee Absalom. The priests' sons, Jonathan and Ahimaaz, waited at En-rogel and were sent word by a female servant, but a young man saw their activity anyway and reported it to Absalom. The men fled and hid in a man's well at Bahurim, and the woman covered for them until they were able to continue on to David. (2 Samuel 17)
