 Bozrah
    enclosure; fortress. (1.) The city of Jobab, one of the early
    Edomite kings (Gen. 36:33). This place is mentioned by the

    2:12). Its modern representative is el-Busseireh. It lies in the
    mountain district of Petra, 20 miles to the south-east of the
    Dead Sea.
      (2.) A Moabite city in the "plain country" (Jer. 48:24), i.e.,
