Easton's Bible Dictionary

Fruitful places, some unknown place in the south, where David found friends when he fled from Saul (1 Sam 30:28).

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

sif'-moth, sif'-moth (siphmoth (Ginsburg), shiphamoth (Baer); Saphei): One of the cities to which David sent presents from Ziklag (1 Sam 30:28). It occurs between Aroer and Eshtemoa, so it must have been somewhere in Southern Judah. The site has not been recovered. Zabdi the Shiphmite (1 Chr 27:27) may quite probably have been a native of this place.
