Mizpah in Benjamin

The other Israelite tribes met at the Mizpah of Benjamin, where they decided to attack the Benjaminites for this grievous sin according to Judges 20:1–11.

At the same time, the decision was made to ban marriage Benjaminite men and Israelite women.

[6] After the return of the Ark of the Covenant, lost to the Philistines following the Israelites' defeat at the Battle of Aphek, Samuel gathered all Israel at Mizpah to offer a sacrifice to God and ask Him to forgive their sin.

The Israelites fought off a raid by the Philistines, taking advantage of the assembly, and drove them back below Beth Car.

[9] Mizpah is mentioned in the Book of Nehemiah as one of the towns resettled by the Jewish exiles returning from the Babylonian captivity and who helped to construct the walls of Jerusalem during the reign of Artaxerxes I (Xerxes).
