Jawbone height

After Samson slew one thousand men with the jawbone of a donkey, he threw it away, and that place took on a new name,

And so it was, when he had finished speaking, that he threw the jawbone from his hand, and called that place Ramath Lehi (Judges 15:17).

“Ramath Lehi,” means Jawbone Height, and so whenever Israelites went there, just by saying the name of the place, they could remember it as the site of a great battle when the Lord used one man to defeat their enemy.
