HORESH [ISBE]
HORESH - ho'-resh (choreshah, 1 Sam 23:15,18, margin only; Septuagint en Te Kaine, "in the New"; English Versions of the Bible "in the wood" (ba-choreshdh), the particle "in" being combined with the article): Choresh in other passages is translated "forest" (compare 2 Ch 27:4; Isa 17:9; Ezek 31:3) and it is most probable that it should be so translated here.
