2 Chronicles 8:4

HamathTadmor

2 Solomon rebuilt the cities Hiram had given him and settled Israelites there.

3 Then Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and captured it.

He built Tadmor in the wilderness, in addition to all the store cities that he had built in Hamath.

5 He rebuilt Upper and Lower Beth-horon as fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars,

6 as well as Baalath, all the store cities that belonged to Solomon, and all the cities for his chariots and horses —whatever he desired to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout the land of his dominion.
